Surgeon Testimonial Ed Nighbert, M.D. My first impression of Dr Neighbert - I thought he looked friendly, not stiff as some Dr's do. Did my impression of him change- Yes, I liked him even more How would I describe his office staff - Most all of his staff is very nice What did I like least - I like him very well What should future patients know about him -He is a very caring Dr, how you feel matters to him. How much does he emphasize aftercare - Dr Neighbert and his staff want to know how you feel, I received several calls from his office just to check on me post surgery. Does he have a structured aftercare program - yes, also group meetings are offered. Did he address the risk of surgery - I ask that question, before he mentioned it so I am not sure of that question. How would I rate him overall - I think he is great, in fact my neice is also going now to have the surgery and a few of my friends. Which is better, surgical competence, bedside manner or both - I would want competence more than bedside manner, in Dr Neighbert, you get both. Latest Surgery Support Comments

Life is measured not by the breaths we take But by the moments that take our breath away
My Story I had my surgery on june 6 2006. I weighed 319, On my presurgery diet I lost 6 pounds Day of surgery I weighed 314 Oct 21 I am down 73 pounds, Dr Nighbert set the goal at 173, but I want to get to 150. I want to see the scales say 149 truly. I cant remember being under 150, I believe I was borned at 135.I have always had a weight problem. I was a chubby child. I have tried every diet out there I think. I would lose some ,then gain it back with more tacked on. RNY is working, I never have lost 65 pounds , Lots of people have lost over a 100 pounds that had the surgery around the same time as me. I get afraid that I want get to goal. I have failed so many times, but surely I will, ( I hope) Thursday Nov 2 2006- I have been stuck for a while, but I do that all the time. I will go a few weeks and not lose then I get on and several pounds will be gone. I dont think I have had the honeymoon period. Nov 6 2006- Today makes 5 months, I have lost 77 pounds. I wish I had the century card by now, but I will make it. I really want to be in onderland. I will be there by next summer if not before. I will get there by march surely counting 10 pounds a month march I would be there. I might take off and get there way before, who knows. That would make me happy. November 13- 240- 2 more pounds gone. I am excited that I have lost 79 pounds now. Slowly but surely.
