Surgeon Testimonial Eric Bour, M.D. I really like Dr. Bour and his program. He has an outstanding program. Every week at support group meeting I am impressed with his staff and all the information I learn in meetings. The thing I liked the least was the waiting list. He is so good that he is kept booked months in advance. Future patients need to have reasonable expectations. He does not perform drive through surgery. There are psychological tests, meetings with a psychologist, meetings with a nutritionist and pre-tests done to ensure that it is safe for you to have this surgery. Aftercare is absolutely emphasized but is not the only consideration with Dr. Bour. You have to take classes prior to being scheduled for surgery. If you don't take the classes you don't get the surgery. He wants to make sure that everyone knows exactly what they are getting into and what to do in any situation. There is a carefully structured aftercare program and classes that are mandatory. Dr. Bour is very knowledgeable and I have spoken with several of his patients to ask them questions as well. They all speak very highly of him. HE explains everything to you and you are SOOOO INFORMED!! I'll update more after surgery. :) Member Interests

9 month check up!
I met with Dr. Bour today. I have lost a total of 117 lbs.!! I am little behind...but not by much. I feel so much better!! I weighed 224. My goal is to be under 200 by my 1 year check up on 11-7-08! Dr. Bour was pleased with my progress so far....no complaints. I am still walking at lunch, swimming and using the elipitical machine (which just about kills me!!) that is so tough! I have also started working a second job and I am taking a class at TECH!! busy...busy..which is all good. I am leaving on a cruise next week - leaving from New York, then Boston, then Portland, Maine then Halifax and St. John, Canada... It should be really pretty with the fall colors. I am going with 16 other friends/church people. I am sooooooooooo looking forward to it. I will post again at my 1 year check up. I had one friend have the surgery in June and I have 2 friends having this surgery later- One Sept 15 and one later in the year. Dr. Bour is so great. I am very thankful for this opportunity! God bless...till next time! :) Angela 2 Comment(s)
