Surgeon Testimonial

Celio O. Burrowes M.D.
My first impression was that he really cared about his patients and that he loved his profession. Any fear I had going into this faded quickly. His office staff is wonderful except for 1 person, who shall remain nameless. She is not a warm person and gives a very bad 1,2,3,4,5 impression. She doesn't know how to talk to people and is just down right rude. Future patients when you meet her you will know exactly who I am talking about, with her hard accent. The meetings before and after the surgery are very helpfull because you are getting both sides of the reality good and bad. After surgery the angels call you, mine is Joys and she is excellent. She herself has had the surgery and in my opinion is truly a succes story. My overall surgery and healing process have gone very well. Besides not being able to sleep on my stomach it wasnt that bad. i recommend it to anyone that has battled with there weight as long as I have. I also recommend Dr. Burrowes, he is an excellent doctor and my scat is already disappearing.

Let see there's not much to say about me.  I have always been known as the girl who could sing.  The one when they would describe me they would say she is kina thick or a little heavy.  Honey I was fat.  I was always the bigger 10 or the one that was always "big for my age".  Well going though lifes ups and downs, death, disappointments, and changes  I turned to the only friend that would always be there and that was food. It has never let me down, always around. When I was around 25 I started getting sick, fainting, shortness of breath, lack of energy.  went to several doctors and was given all the test you could think of,  Everything came back negative, the only thing that was positive was that I was fat. Well I was totally against Weigh Loss Surgery so for one year I was on a supervised diet.  Watched what I ate, drank, worked out everyday and in the end I lost a whopping 10 pounds. Aint that some shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After talking it over with myself and with GOD I stepped out on faith and decided to just do it.  I investigated the different doctors and procedures and made the choice,  On December 13, 2004 I was wheeled into the surgery room, alone with no family, just GOD carrying me through. And the rest as they say is history.......................................

My Story

I've looked at alot of profiles on this site and I can honestly say some of you have a very interesting journey. I never thought to "share" my walk with anyone. I mean I was bigger and now I'm just big, lol. I will say that in the beginning I thought that alot of the things that they make you go throug in order to have this surgery was just out of this world. As time has gone by I understand and I wish I would've taken this whole thing more seriously. THIS IS A LIFE CHANGING EVENT!!! Over the past few years I have gone through mentally and emotionally. I even realized that I was happier pushing 400 pounds in a size 32 than I am now. I know that seems crazy but everyday I find myself finding something wrong with the skin I'm in.
