Dr. Anoosh has dedicated a significant part of his professional life to the treatment of obesity and making surgery less painful with minimally invasive techniques. He completed his minimally invasive and bariatric surgery fellowship training at University of Pittsburgh under the supervision of nationally renowned Dr. Anita Courcoulas.
“Bariatric surgery helped me lose 110 pounds. Hearing my husband say ‘I got my wife back’ helps me to keep it off. This is my story.” “I looked at a picture from a business meeting and hated myself. All 242 pounds of me stuffed into a size 22 red dress. I was killing everything important to me so I finally said: ‘Okay Kelly, enough!’ and I went to Brookhaven Hospital and met with Dr. Anoosh and his staff in Bariatrics. Suddenly, I had a team of experts on my side and something more important: Hope that I could get better. After surgery, everyone stuck by me… putting together dietary programs, getting me into support groups, and answering every call. I’ve never been happier – and neither has my husband!”

After so many year of being extremely overweight, I decided to changed my life to go back to being a healthier me. I searched Brookhaven Bariatric online given by my insurance carrier. The first time I walked into the office I felt very welcomed. The staff is absolutely professional and very caring. Deeply appreciated how nurses and aides helped and guided me from day one until the day of my surgery. I was presented to my surgeon Dr. Anoosh, he is a specialist in Lap Band surgery. From the first time I was introduce to the doctor he was very knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable. I will like to point out my stay at Brookhaven Hospital was amazing. I honestly need to say that nurses were very caring at all my needs after surgery and during my stay. Dr. Anoosh came to the hospital to see me. One thing that I will like to point out is how caring he was not only towards me as the patient but also towards my parents at all times which were in the waiting room. Dr. Anoosh is without a doubt the best around. He cares about each of his patients and takes the time to make sure all of his patients and family members are under great care and at all times well informed. He has a great bedside manner. I will with no doubts recommend Dr. Anoosh and his staff. They were and are extremely compassionate, knowledgeable, professional and welcoming. Sept. 2, 2011

I have only good things to say about Dr. Anoosh and the staff in the office of Brookhaven Bariatric Center! From the very first moment I was comfortable having my surgery with Dr. Anoosh. Every question was answered clearly with vast knowledge. I was told every detail of the surgery and what to expect. When I has a bad reaction to pain meds, Dr. Anoosh called me at home to check on me. I have already recommended Dr. Anoosh to several friends who inquired about what I did to lose weight!. I'm so happy with my decision to undergo surgery and I'm thankful for a surgeon and staff that made this journey so amazingly smooth! Oct. 5, 2011

I liked Dr. Anoosh immediately upon meeting him. He is quite knowledgeable, has a great empathy for his patients (Me!), and always has a smile on his face. He kept me well informed and told me what to expect after surgery. He is always open to questions/comments no matter how dumb they may seem to me. I can now look forward to new, healthier future! I cannot forget to mention the entire staff (Mary, LeeAnn, Alison, and Dr. Sapala too) at Brookhaven Bariatric & Wellness Center are wonderful: Professional, informative, helpful, and they really care! I recommend them quite highly. Ditto for Brookhaven Hospital -- All nurses, aids, and other staff were very caring and professional. Oct. 10, 2011

I can't say enough about Dr. Anoosh and the entire Staff. This is the first time in my life I look forward to going to a doctors appoinment. After being overweight all my life I decided to go to a seminar. There I met Dr. Anoosh. From the first time I spoke with him in regards to the procedures I know I made the right choice and felt very confident. Thank you Dr. Anoosh for your assistance and continued support!!

Dr. Anoosh joined the "family" of Brookhaven Bariatric a short time ago and although I liked him right away I always considered myself Dr. Sapalas pt. I recently had to be hospitalized 3x in 7 weeks and came know to Dr. Anoosh very well. He has the same caring, concerned and wonderful bedside manner that Dr. Sapala shows his patients. I had to have some extensive wound care (involving a machine called a wound vac) and Dr Anoosh was there for all the dressing changes - even after he had called in a wound care specialist. There were days when I thought I would never leave the hospital but when ever he saw me (my hair sticking up every which way, ugly hosp gown, etc) he never failed to say - "You look good - much better today". At every visit the last thing he says to me - you have the number call for anything - we are here for you. That is an absolute true statement - the whole Brookhaven Bariatric & Wellness Team is always there for me. Caroline mastro Nov. 1, 2011

Ever since my first appt. with Dr. Anoosh, Dr. Sapala, and Mary Zotos (Nutritionist/Program Director) I have been very at ease in the office. The whole staff is personable and informative. Any time you need the Dr's or nurses they are there for you, and really care about you. They have all the answers to your questions, and will walk you through the process. I always look forward to going to my appt. and going to support group. We, as patients are supportive of one another as well. Jan. 29, 2012

Met with Dr. Anoosh and his team and everyone is magnificent. Had a one on one with Dr. Anoosh and the nurse and loved how he concentrates on just his client on that moment. I'm so looking forward to working with Dr. Anoosh going forward. May 14, 2014

I am having my surgery tomorrow and although it is very exciting I am also very scared. The doctor and his staff have been great in helping me to make my decision and in getting me to this point. Dr Anoosh spent a lot of time explaining the procedure as well as the aftercare he and his staff were very informative and very thorough. I was recommended from a friend who used him and I would definitely recommend him to any others who may want to use him. June 9, 2014

After having some serious issues with my back and being very overeight, my medical doctor discussed bariatric surgery with me to try and have some pressure taken off of my back. I was referred to Dr. Anoosh by 2 friends and I have been seeing Dr. Anoosh since October. He and his staff have been very informative about the surgery, they all work as a team and have brought me a long way with the proper diet. I am scheduled for the Gastric Sleeve on March 3rd and I have complete confidence that this will be a great success, thanks to him. Feb. 22, 2015 Overall

I have been working with Brookhaven Bariatrics on my weight loss journey. They have been so helpful. Dr. Anoosh really listens to your concerns and does his absolute best to respond with as much information as possible. My experience has been amazing. I have no unsettling feelings due to the amount of information that Dr. Anoosh and his staff have provided me with. I am excited to continue to work with Dr. Anoosh on the rest of my journey to healthiness and happiness. Aug. 5, 2015
