Surgeon Testimonial

Ki Hyun Oh M.D.
My first impression of Dr. Oh came at the orientation. He was thorough in his explanations & the importance of following his instructions for the most success. He was also humorous, which was a surprise since I had heard otherwise. I feel very good about his surgical competence and really like the lifelong follow-up.

Cindy, Congrats! Welcome to the rest of your life. I can only wish the best for you on this powerful journey! Can't wait to hear your success story soon! Take care of yourself and you will do great. Will be thinking about you on Thursday! Liz

Thursday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench!

2 months to lose 5 pounds
I knew the weight loss would slow down. But I really thought I was done losing. Just in the last couple weeks I have been losing again. So maybe what I'd been experiencing was a longer plateau than I've usually experienced. Whatever is happening, I do know that I'm happier than I've been in a long time. My marriage has done a 180 degree turn around, my confidence is soaring, and my attitude truly determines how I respond to things and people around me. That may be common knowledge to most people, but it's been an epiphany for me!

You are such an inspiration to me. I can't wait to have my RNY so that this journey can get moving! Please keep in touch after you get to your goal weight, I know it will be difficult, but I found you because you answered my question on these boards.
