Surgeon Testimonial

David Provost, M.D.
Doctor Provost is AWESOME. The only downfall is the 4 month waiting list to get your initial consult. Doctor Provost answers ALL your questions and he is very patient. I heard he writes great letters to normally difficult insurance places and gets them to approve. We shall see! I would absolutely recommend him to anyone. His staff is great! He was very thorough about what to expect concerning risks and his after care program. Fantastic Bedside manner.

** Today is April 10th and I am nearly 5 months post-op. My weight is 197 and I have lost a total of 90 pounds!!!! I wear a size 14 top and size 16 bottom! Hard to believe that I was a size 28 just 5 months ago!

I am moving to Kentucky in a week because of my future husband and a great new job! My new handle I think will be DanaExTx courtesy of David. I think thats cute. I miss everyone in the chatroom! Just been busy boxing up stuff! I cannot wait to move! I am soooooooo happy. If you want to see updated pictures of David and I. Just click on the above homepage link~! I am thrilled to death about this surgery. I would have this surgery done EVERY DAY if I could feel as good as I do now! NOTHING bad to say about this surgery. It was WORTH IT! Piece of cake!
