    I had my surgery done on 11/8/2021. Dr Rutkowski, & his team from the beginning were very insightful, informative, tentative, & caring. Gave me all the sense of relief, & confidence that I needed to go into having the Gastric Bypass surgery. Rite now, this is absolutely the best decision I’ve ever made. My highest weight 286lbs. Day of surgery I was 271lbs. Today, March 26th, I’m roughly around 220lbs or a little bit less, & still losing.

    I will recommend any, & everyone to Dr. Rutkowski, if they were thinking about getting the surgery. Also, I knew I was in good hands when, he asked if he could say a prayer before surgery. Little did he know, at that moment, my anxiety left!!

    Thank You Dr. Rutkowski. See you soon for my 6mth check up!!!

    I have been overweight my whole life, which led to a lot of anxiety and depression. Last summer I saw my PCP for my annual check and was told I needed to go on medication for my high blood pressure and that I was at risk for diabetes. It was then that I realized things needed to change I actually googled bariatric surgery in Buffalo and Dr. Rutkoski was the first result that popped up! I watched the seminar that was provided and instantly knew that he was the Dr. I wanted to see. Dr. Rutkoski is the nicest guy ever. I felt very comfortable during the consult as he addressed all my concerns and showed that he really did care. He was very thorough with explaining everything to me. His office staff is also wonderful! I never had a problem with any appointments or waiting at all. His scheduler, Cassidy, is also great! She helped make this the most non-stressful experience ever.

    I recently had my VSG surgery and everything went great! Dr. Rutkoski came and saw me before I went into the operating room and made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. He also said a prayer with me. He is definitely the most gentle surgeon because after the surgery, I couldn’t believe the lack of pain I had. It really was a great experience from start to finish. I would recommend Dr. Rutkoski to anybody who is even considering bariatric surgery! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

    Dr. Rutkoski is the gentlest surgeons I have ever had the privilege of having as a Dr. He is kind, compassionate and genuinely cares about his patients. I have gained some if my pre-surgical wieght back due to emotional stress over the last 2 yrs. ( my husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer and has gone home to be with Jesus) I can't wait to call the office and request to see Dr. Rutkoski to hopefully have my sleeve redone. I also truly appreciated the Dr. John's prayers before surgery.

    I had bariatric sleeve done 2 years ago and the experience with Dr Rutkoski was wonderful the part that I loved is before surgery he asked if I pray I said yes so he said well let’s pray before surgery and we did Thanks Dr R for what you have done for me losing over a 100 pounds and keep it off is sometimes a Challenge but I’m doing it that is my before and after pics
