Surgeon Testimonial

Michael Jiser, M.D.
After originally starting in Dr. Drinkwater's program, and being ready for a date, I find that he's resigning and I have to choose a different doctor if I want to continue. Things were a little hectic for me both at work and at home, so I decided to not have the surgery, then anyway.

Tuesday, Jan. 23 I went to an Information Session with the staff of Lowell General, with Dr. Jiser. I had been to one shortly after Dr. Drinkwater resigned, but just couldn't focus on things at that time. My dear friend had her surgery March 2006 with Dr. Jiser and she looks and feels great. After some serious discussions with my husband, here I am again, and ready to go. Everything at home and at work are different and much better.

My first meeting with the nurse practitioner is Feb 07 at 8 am. I can't wait.

Yesterday I walked in the "Walk for Obesity" in Lowell, MA. The weather was great, and I had a good time with my friend Barbara.  

I am now 4 1/2 months out, and about 75 pounds down since the start of the program in Feb.; 57 since surgery. I am a retail manager and a lot of my customers, who were very supportive about this surgery, are really noticing the difference. I feel great, have more energy than I've had in a long time!!  

Dr. Jiser is wonderful-he has a great 'bed-side' manner and an overall terrific personality.  I see him on Nov. 16th for my 6 month check-up.

After being in Dr. Jiser's program since Feb. 07, 2007-in April I had gotten my date for surgery-it was May 14. Today is June 16, and I'm feeling great. I know I made the right decision. At my one-month appointment, I have lost a total of 43 pounds (since my start date in this program), 18.5 since my surgery.  WOOHOO!!
