Got questions for
Dr. David Schumacher, MD?
David Schumacher, MD, FACS, FASMBS, is a board-certified general surgeon specializing in laparoscopic general surgery and surgical weight loss. He diagnoses and treats patients at Ohio Bariatrics and Laparoscopy in Miamisburg, Ohio.
Dr. Schumacher is a pioneer in laparoscopic weight loss surgery and minimally invasive general surgeries, having performed these operations as early as 1992. Dr. Schumacher has always sought the newest procedures involving minimally invasive surgery. His mission has always been to seek the best possible options and provide the best care to improve the community’s health.
He graduated from residency at Rush-Presbyterian-St. Luke’s Medical Center in 1993 and joined a practice in Pennsylvania. He sought specialized training in laparoscopic approaches at the Minimally Invasive Institute in Baltimore, Maryland.
Dr. Schumacher has always been at the leading edge of surgical innovation, particularly in laparoscopic procedures and bariatric surgery. From 1993 to 2000, Dr. Schumacher performed, lectured, and proctored laparoscopic approaches for reflux surgery, ventral hernias, appendectomies, intestinal resection, inguinal hernias, adrenalectomies, and liver ablation.
The pinnacle in surgery for laparoscopy is bariatric surgery. He opened his first laparoscopic weight loss office in 2000 and became one of the first 200 surgeons in the United States to perform a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass with a laparoscope. Dr. Schumacher presented his findings on the safety of a laparoscopic approach in 2004 to the American Society for Bariatric Surgery (ASBS) at the national convention listed as “The Use of Intra-operative Endoscopy and the ‘Bubble Test’ to Prevent Leaks During Laparoscopic Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass.”
In 2005, Dr. Schumacher was hired by Kettering Health Network to develop a laparoscopic bariatric practice. He began Kettering Bariatrics and was the Director of Bariatric Surgery from 2005 to 2019. Dr. Schumacher was paramount in developing a Center of Excellence, and the institution was awarded that distinction for all years at Kettering. In 2006, Dr. Schumacher was one of the first surgeons in the country to perform a laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. He lectured and proctored surgeons across the country from 2006 to 2009, helping in the development of sleeve gastrectomy as an accepted covered benefit by most insurance carriers. After leaving Kettering in 2019, he developed a third bariatric practice at Norton-KDH Hospital in Madison, Indiana. He now has the opportunity to begin a private practice returning to the Dayton community.
Throughout the years, Dr. Schumacher has become the most experienced laparoscopic surgeon in Southwestern Ohio. In bariatrics alone, he has performed over 4000 bariatric cases, which have included laparoscopic procedures for gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, band placements, duodenal switch, SIPs procedures, conversion of sleeve to Roux, conversion of older procedures to more recent, and revisional surgery. He welcomes former patients, new patients, and transfer patients to his new practice, Ohio Bariatrics and Laparoscopy. Surgeries will be performed at Premier Health or Riverview Health Institute.

I am completly happy with the service and will recommend Dr. Schumacher to whom ever i talk with about my experience.
Dr. Schumacher and his team are amazing. I’m so grateful to have them as doctors and nurses. I appreciate everything they’ve done and everything that they do thank you.
Dr Schumacher explained things well so that I could understand. He answered all of my questions. Very glad he was the doctor to perform my surgery.
all the staff is excellent. And the Doctor too.
Amazing Dr and staff! Very pleased with all of them!
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.
Very nice and knowledgeable practice ...
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.
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!
Dr Schumacher will let you know if he can help you, or what procedure is best for you.
