Surgeon Testimonial

Jamal Farhan, M.D.
Dr. Farhan was awesome. He explained in detail everything that COULD happen with the surgery. He made sure I understood ALL the risks and benefits before making the decision to go thru with the surgery. The staff was great. Especially Devora, Julie, and Ida. Ida has since moved on to other things, but both Julie and Devora are still there. I will be honest, I was a little frustrated with him at my 3 month check-up because he said I needed to lose more weight at a faster rate. Well, by my 6 month check-up, I had lost a total of 107 pounds and he said I was doing well. I'm sorry if anyone reading this feels it is suspect, but I truly had a great surgeon and I would highly recommend Dr. Farhan.
