I was told by a friend that Dr. Hargroder was a nice, informative and a great doctor. In her opinion I could not find a better surgeon. She was correct! He was everything she said and more. His office staff are the BEST! They have been very patient with my requests and concerns.

Before my surgery I did hours and hours of research on Dr. Hargroder and his patients. What I found was very
impressive, in the years he has been performing obesity surgery he has never lost a patient. He was everything everyone described… He walked in the room wearing scrubs and cowboy boots, he was very open and honest and really listened to what my husband and I had to say. My opinion of him today is the same as before my surgery, I recommend him to everyone. Dr. Hargroder’s office staff is wonderful, they are so warm and caring that they make you feel at home. His surgical nurse Karen is awesome, she is the best. You ask the question do I have anything negative to say, the answer is NO. There honestly was not one single thing that was negative about Dr. Hargroder, his office staff, the hospital staff or my stay at RiverWest Medical Center. Everyone went above and beyond to make me comfortable.

Excellent!! Dr. hargroder deeply impressed me with his caring attitude. He honestly made me feel like a real person instead of a piece of meat. It only got better!! the explanations he gave were wonderful, he took so much time to answer my questions and allay any fears I had. No words are good enough!! The support staff was amazing!! even the nurses when they grumbled at me for not walking enugh after surgery! The after care was super, being from Texas I had a toll free number that was answered 24 hours a day and it never took very long to get a reply. I can’t think of anything I dislike about Dr. H. Dr. H is a very caring man. he is intensely concerned about making you comfortable and making sure you have all the answers you need. He is very strong on aftercare. He does have an aftercare program but I was allowed to do mine with my primary physician under his guidance due to living so far away although he did ask me to come back at the 4 month point for a general check up. Dr. H is very honest about the risks associated and makes sure you understand what you are facing. I would rate Dr. hargroder as a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10. Both he and his staff went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. His bedside manner is awesome and his surgical skills seem to be very impressive, I had a LAP Roux N Y and was up[ walking in 24 hours and made a full recovery within 2 weeks.

Dr Hargroder was great and so where the staff! I would recommend him highly! I am thanful that I had the chance to have this surgery. It has been 2 years and 4 months since I had the surgery and I have had no major complications to date. I have been struggling with anemia but I have been taken a product called Chorella that has help! I would not hesitate to suggest or recommend the surgery or surgeon to someone!
