Dr. Weingarten was one of two referrals I received from my Endo for thyroid surgery. My husband went with me and by the time we left we both thought he was great. He answered all my questions (and I had a lot) in detail, he never rushed through, and despite what other people have written he has a fantastic bedside manner and a great sense of humor. I felt completely comfortable about having surgery by the time I left that first appt, and this was my first surgery EVER. The morning of surgery I had even more questions which he again answered in detail and he took his time talking to me even though I know he was very busy with surgeries that day. My husband told me later that right after surgery he went to talk to my husband and my mother in the waiting area and explained how the surgery went. He explained everything to me again the next morning when he made his rounds at the hospital. My incision is a perfectly straight thin line that is healing very well. He's a fantastic surgeon.\r
