I had this surgery close to 4 months ago. I was a lower BMI with co-morbidities. I am down to 168 pounds and wearing a size 10. I have had zero complications and cannot believe the difference it has made in my life.
I am in a support group of over 100 people and everyone in the group feels the same as I do. I have read where some people have had problems with the surgery, but I have not come across it among the people that I know who have had it done. It has changed my life.
Great review?
My Doctor: Dr. Marvin
My rating:
A friend of mine used him. He is AMAZING. He spent 30 minutes with me on an appointment before surgery going over everything. Name a doctor who does that!
