"I was impressed from the first meeting. He is very straight forward and no subject is taboo. He wants to be sure you know exactly what is in store for you,all the risks, the good and bad of this surgery. He'll answer any questions you have, until you're satisfied, he doesn't care how long it takes, he's there for you! I like everything about him, I totally trust him, literally with my life! rnrnIt is my understanding he used to be chief of surgery for transplants, then started doing wls. rnrnHis office staff and personnel are very friendly and warm, some have had the surgery as well and know just what your feeling. They made me feel very comfortable and not self conscious at all. rnrnThey are very before during and after care oriented, they have a lifetime aftercare, not just a few months then set you free, they are there for you for life! They have a very structured and well thought out pre- and post - op plan, you even receive a 3 ring binder chock full of instructions, food choices for each stage and tons of recipes too. I call it my \"Barix Bible\". rnrnI'd rate Dr. Poplawski and the Barix team a 10 out of 10! Highly recommend! rnrnThey have the surgical competence, bedside manner and personalities needed for this field. rnrnAlthough others may have had a negative experience, mine was nothing but positive. These are only my own impressions and experience, I'd suggest that if in doubt, ease your own mind and do your research! rnrn"
"This is an excellent source. 1 Scoop with 8 oz hot, not boiling, water, make for 20 grams of protein drink. This is very tasty! Better than homemade stock I'd say, and it makes an excellent gravy for meats as well as whole wheat pasta or potatoes. "
