Surgeon Testimonial Andrew Averbach, M.D. I really liked him...professional and able to answer all of my questions. He also was very interested in answering my questions and making sure I asked everything that was on my mind. I've only had one visit with him thus far, so I have nothing negative to say at this point. Aftercare was emphasized, as was individual commitment to the program afterwards. Results vary by patient, and I know this as I've seen different success rates from friends who have undergone surgery. There is a structured aftercare program built around the support group. The risks of surgery were discussed at the seminar, so I didn't have but a few questions. Despite the very straight to the point personality, I managed to make him smile--so he was able to show his human side, and that's always good. Surgical competence is of utmost importance to me, however good bedside manner is also great. Member Interests

My Story I'm skipping all the stuff that makes me who I am...I'm more into going over the medical conditions I have now so that later I can see huge improvements!! -PCOS--I know this won't go away, but it will be more manageable once I lose the extra weight. -Diabetes--mine is weight related, and I have been encouraged that this condition will likely dissipate and resolve altogether! -Asthma--should improve -Sleep Apnea--should resolve completely, hopefully -Migraines--I hear they improve, especially when they are related to hormonal changes -Chronic back/neck pain--should improve if not resolve altogether Obviously, it's great to be able to go shopping anywhere and not have to order my clothes online...and it's great to have the looks again, and for people to respect me for me without first getting to know me...but aside all of this, I'm most looking forward to the improvements to my health overall...I don't have any plans of dying anytime soon...My Uncle was diagnosed with diabetes at an early age, and died from a heart attack secondary to complications from diabetes...so I'm not up for following in his footsteps, no disrespect...but I'm sure my Uncle is looking down on me right now saying WTG Michelle...I wish I had done this...If I had only known yada yada.... So for now, this is my story and I'm sticking to it...I've been thin before, I really liked it...not as much as I should have, because I don't think I realized just how lucky I was to be thin at the time...now after living life as a heavy person and knowing all that it entails, I will be much more grateful for the life I've been given...
