ORIGINAL POST
Triggering, Unprofessional Experience

Though the procedure was smooth and the staff was kind and comforting, Dr. Bonelli was rude and inappropriate. During the procedure, instead of making polite small talk to comfort his nervous patient, Dr. Bonelli began to talk to me about how I was “overweight”. He began suggesting that I fast two days a week , only eat 1200 calories, and begin walking 10 miles a day. He then began comparing me to other “slimmer” patients. He even began telling me my anxiety and depression was a result of my weight and that if I exercised more, I wouldn’t need my anxiety/depression medication. This type of talk occurred for the entirely of my 2 hour procedure. If you are not aware, Dr. Bonelli is about 450 pounds. Though I have no issue with the weight of others, he was not giving me his professional health advice, just judging my body based on his personal opinions. These remarks were extremely unprofessional coming from a doctor who had no idea of my health (this was my second time meeting him), and who had presented no issue with my weight during my consultation and no problem taking my payment. Though I do not regret my procedure, I regret giving my money to someone as disrespectful to women as this man. As a person with a mental illness and a women recovering from an eating disorder, this experience was extremely triggering.
