Surgeon Testimonial

Mitchell S. Roslin M.D.
If you're looking for a new best friend or for someone to hold your hand, Roslin may not be your man. HOWEVER, if you're looking for a surgeon who is skilled, competent and truly has a gift from God, you're in the right place. I continued fighting for insurance approval with Mitch Roslin because I'd heard he was incredibly skilled in performing the DS. In a market like NYC where there are a plethora of surgeons who perform this procedure, he remains a stand-out. Reports from his post-op patients were so excellent, that I knew I could settle for no one else. There were delays and miscommunications with his office staff at times but every day post-op I regret nothing because I know I put myself in the best hands possible.

Missing "Rockin' Robin" ...
A tragedy just came to my attention a couple of days ago and I assumed you would know about it but I checked posts back to April 10th and didn't see anything.

Our dear and wonderful "New & Improving Robin"--my wonderful "Rockin' Robin"--passed away last week from a blood clot.  I have absolutely no details although I'm assuming it was tied to plastic surgery, because when we were all in Irvine last year, she was ready to take that step.  A relative of her's contacted me through my column on another site to tell me she had passed.

If you'd like to send your condolences to her family, please PM them to me -- or post them to her profile (
http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/rlee67/) -- and I will forward them to her family.  She also had her own website: http://www.thenewrobin.com.

As/If I know more about exactly what happened, I will pass the info along to you.  

This is really lousy news; Robin bloomed in front of our eyes and had become everything she'd ever hoped to be -- and more.  It is a terrible loss to our fellowship.  

Just in case you'd forgotten about it, this is a perfect example of how much Robin had embraced life:

In the meantime, take care of yourselves and live each day like it's your last ... See it ... believe it ... be it!!

I just logged on and saw Will's tribute. I can not believe it. She is missed! Thank you Melissa for posting this. Such a tragedy. Prayers for the family.
