Surgeon Testimonial

D. Blaine Nease, M.D. F.A.C.S.
He one of the most nice Doctor I have seen. He did not look down at, made sure you understood everything.What you to do well. The people that work for him are wonderful and very helpful. I would stand on my head for this man. Make you feel so relax and comfortable, you could tell him anything. Always smiling and joking, so are his employee. They know you by name not by number. The after care has been great, we was told what to do and what to eat. exercise, walk, walk. He explain the surgery very well to me and I am hearing impaired. I rate him 150%. Both bedside manner and surgery was great. they had a hard time getting a IV start so he said take in I do one (their a proper name for it) goes in the neck. explain it and I was not scare, I was very relax and at ease.

One Month Down
on July 30, 2007 11:08 pm
It been a bumppie road but I made it this far. I am very happy with the weight loss I had so far. I go back to the doctor on Aug. 10, I been good I not weight myself, I want to check it then. I had a couple sick days where I quess I got air in and been very sick. Felt like I had 1000pds on my chest and back. But as soon as I was able to get the air up was ok. So now use a cup with a straw that goes to the bottom or a sip cup. Food has been ok, I really had to learn how to eat slow and small. My kids do not understand mommy can not have there sweet any more. I am not hungry any more.  I come to see how much I use food as a comfort for all my problems.  I am able to walk throw a store and shop do not need a wheel chair. I can stand and due dishes and help clean my house. I am driving again.
