Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Slow and steady wins the race!
I have lost very slowly, but I am no longer complaining. I feel so much better and I am moving around so much easier. I’ve even been able to wear pumps again! Just wanted to give you guys an update of what I look like.
3 Weeks Post Op
It appears that I’m a slow loser. HW 273 SW 256 CW 246
I’m so frustrated! I thought the weight would be melting by now.

1 Week Post Op Visit
Can I just say...... I couldn't have asked for a better Surgeon. Dr. Farhan is amazing. My incisions look greet, the bariatric team is wonderful and I feel empowered to finally start putting obesity behind me. A couple of days after my hospital visit, I ended up feeling really dizzy and clammy. I called the after hours number to the clinic and Dr. Farhan called me back within 10 mins. I wasn't expecting a call directly from the doctor. I was expecting someone from his staff to call me. He was kind, thorough, caring and was able to advise me of what to do. All is well, it was just a reaction to Reglan, one of the medications that I was taking for nausea.
So visit was very detailed, I received lots of pointers on ways to improve my protein intake as I have developed a strong sensitivity to the smell of the protein shakes. It's like being pregnant all over again. The smell of the shakes just makes me want to puke. Believe or not this is not uncommon, there is a medical term for this and its not all in my head. Yay!
I will say, I've read over 100 reviews about the sleeve on this site and I was really expecting to have lost some weight upon being released from the hospital. I only lost 2lbs :( I just don't understand how I could only lose 2lbs when I could barely eat. I hope that weight loss will pick up in the up coming weeks. Although I'm feeling a little defeated, I am excited about adding new foods in the next week. I'll upload a pic in the next few days.
Anyone else out there that is slow to lose please feel free to reach out.
