Surgeon Testimonial

Daniel McCullough
I have nothing to say but great things for this man. He tells me like it is, but he is caring and listens to what I say. He was there for me before surgery, after and I'm sure will be for a long time. I rate him a A+

My journey
on March 29, 2008 11:31 am
I have been coming to OH since my surgery, but I decided to create my own page today.  Basically I had surgery on 12/26/07, with no major complications.  At my 3 month check up 3/27, I am down 63 lbs, my blood pressure is back to normal, and my doctor said everything is going to plan.  I guess I'm lucky, I have no problems when I eat as long as I leave sugar alone.  So far, I find its pretty easy to stick to the plan.  I hope it stays that way. I look forward to a long life now and to enjoy my children, and my grandchildren.  I would definitely say that this surgery was the best thing for me.!!!!

My Story

During my teenage years I was what I would say was just right in size.  Of course I would not have said that then.  After High School, I began working, got married and had 4 kids.  Over those years my weight rose and rose until the last year I hit my all time high.  MY father is morbidly obese with many health problems.  I could see myself heading in the same direction.  I knew that I would not have quality of life if I did not do something soon.  I have struggled with diets, WW, NS, and the such, would lose weight only to gain in back.  I had thought about WLS but never committed myself to it.  After a high school friend had the surgery and did awesome, I began to look at this in ernest.  I am so glad I did, I truly feel that it has made and will make my quality of life 100% better.
