Testimonials

Dr Schumacher basically saved my life. I had been sick for 2 years and getting no help each time I went to the ER. Ft Hamilton hospital found my med records from 26 years ago under my old name. From there I was transferred to Atrium hospital and Dr Schumacher was willing to take my case on. He said I was malnourished and needed surgery to fix things from 26 years ago, it was more extensive, I suppose, than originally thought. He ended up doing 3 surgeries in about an 8 day period. It has been the hardest part of my life after all I went thru but I can say he was sent to me by God, he has excellent bedside manners and he truly cares about all his patients. I will never forget him and if anyone needs general surgery or weight loss surgery I highly recommend him. I have never dealt with a physician as kind hearted as he is. His staff has always been great too. Everyone was so kind to me, including his nurse practitioner, Jade. Thank you again Dr Schumacher and Jade. I will never forget you.

Prior to seeing Dr.S I had absolutely horrible experiences with our local weight loss office. It was a night and day difference and I'm so happy I decided on him for my medical needs. He had everything in order by my 2nd visit after dealing with my local office for 19 months. The office staff are very caring and helpful. I love the text options for questions that aren't of urgent status. You'll be in good hands here.

Dr Shumacher is very professional, friendly, and explains everything upfront on the gastric bypass surgery

Surgery very little pain. Excellent care , explained everything. Keeps a check on me, blood workup, exercise. Definitely recommended him.

Absolutely amazing! He and his staff are incredible. He takes the time to explain everything, and to listen to your concerns. Worth the 2-hour drive to get the best care!

Dr. Schumacher was very thorough and easy to speak to. After sending me for a couple of tests and due to the complexity of my results, he personally called me to discuss them and then directed me to find a vascular surgeon to address my issues. After having great difficulty trying to find a surgeon familiar with my rare case and necessary surgery, while dealing with emotional distress, I called him and he personally stepped in and went above and beyond to find me a surgeon. I will always be grateful to Dr. Schumacher for going the extra distance in order to help me. I definitely recommend him to anyone needed a top gastric bypass surgeon.

Excellent staff, positive experience, life changing!!

This has been a wonderful experience, life changing actually!! Very happy with all my care and progress!

I am so glad I chose ohio bariatrics! Some surgeons only seem to want to offer sleeves, but dr. Schumacher reviewed the options and let me choose a surgery that we both agreed was right for me, the RNY. You can tell he knows what he is doing, and has a great bedside manner too. It's rare to find a doctor both seasoned in one they do and also compassionate.

Dr. Schumacher is the most amazing doctor I have ever seen. I had a horrible experience at a different place then was recommended Dr. Schumacher. Him and his staff are so kind and understanding. They know me as soon as I walk through the door. I recommend him to everyone I talk to.

Very professional & really sees you as a patient!!

I’ve been with Dr. Schumacher for over 12 years! He’s the BEST!

Great Dr

All staff and Dr Schumacher very nice and discussed my weight loss options. He advised me on my weight loss plans and gave me the options and support to help me on my weight loss journey.

Everyone is so pleasant and I really like the doctor

Doctor is has good communication skills. Talks to you in a way you understand.

I met Dr Schumacher back in 2015 I had a hysterectomy and I completely dehisced Dr Jackson she was the OB she did the hysterectomy an wouldn't take responsibility for what had happened she refused to come to my surgery to tell him that everything he put together was correct if it wasn't for him I would have died of septic. He is a great man and always will be to me in my eyes because he did save my life and people who say negative things about Dr Schumacher is because they don't qualify for the surgery so they want a bad mouth him which is completely unfair. He is the most welcoming understanding caring Physicians that I have ever met in my life he treats everybody like a person and not somebody there who he's going to perform surgery on you're more than that to him he looks as his patients as his extended family and he takes pride in the work that he does. He's just one of those kinds of doctors when you meet its like you have known him all your life. Please don't let these negative comments distract you from the truth just go and meet him and you will see what people have said about him is untrue and unfair to such a great doctor we're losing Physicians like Dr Schumacher everyday and we cannot afford to do that.

Very concerned . Listened with attentiveness Researched my history before diagnosis

My visit today was very informative. Dr.Shumacher took the time to listen to my concerns, then after hearing he asked questions with attentiveness. Then shared his diagnosis and shared his knowledge and opinions that will best benefit my situation. The office staff were very pleasant and respectful! I highly recommend the Dr and Staff ! Lynn M .

Everyone in the office was very kind I really like Dr Schumacher it was my first time meeting him and he really made me feel good and happy with the plan he came up with cause I wanted something different, the conversation motivated me I left with a smile

Dr. Schumacher and his staff is great, very knowledgeable and very caring, takes time to talk to you and listens

I recommend Dr. Schumacher to everyone I know who is considering bariatric surgery. I started researching surgery way back in 2004! I didn’t have my surgery until 2019! So I spent YEARS going back and forth on if it was something I really wanted to do, finding the right surgeon, etc. I finally attended one of his seminars in 2017 and I knew immediately that I found the right surgeon. I had the sleeve and I have no regrets at all. I’ve lost over 200 pounds, reversed all of my health issues, and I’m now living an active life. Forever thankful for Dr. S and him giving me my life back.

Even though that was my first meeting with Dr. Schumacher it was like meeting a familiar friend, he made the visit so welcoming and comfortable!!’

Dr Schumacher always takes time to explain everything to you and never makes you feel rushed I have been a patient of his since 2009 when I had lap band surgery lost track of him until I saw the commercial a few months ago and wanted to return to his practice Very Pleased

Dr. Schumacher was very professional and pleasant. He took his time explaining the procedure(s), expectations post-surgery and answering all of my questions. Thank you for seeing me!

Very nice, close with patients. BEST DOC EVER!

Very professional, kind, and helpful.
