Surgeon Testimonial

Richard Symmonds
I have to say my first impression was he had a dry sense of humor but he turned out to be one hell of a professional.. I absolutely love his office staff.. Karen, the bariatric coordinator is the greatest.. Melissa, the financial lady is just as great.. Paulette A.N.P., is tough but fair.. rnrnAs far as likes and dislikes, I can honestly say I didn't have any dislikes about him.. He is very straight and to the point..rnrnAny future patients need to know that although he appears to have a very dry sense of humor you will warm up to him.. rnrnThe aftercare is done mainly by Paulette but you will see the doc once or twice.. They do try to make sure you stay on track.. rnrnHe made me completely aware of all the risks involved in the surgery. For this, I would say that he is a great surgeon that does a fantastic job overall.rnrn

    Ramon, Have the Greatest PS Ever on Wednesday!! It’s good to see more guys out here on Obesity Help. We make up a small minority of the people having Weight Loss Surgery, but tend to lose down quicker and with fewer hassles than the women due to Male Physiology. I just had my Plastic Surgery this summer. Drop by the "Men's Message Board" at- http://www.obesityhe lp.com/forums/men/ -to see how other Guys are doing with their surgeries. You’ve been an inspiration to the Texas Board for years. Drop by and see how some of the guys around the country are doing. A lot of info and advice specifically tailored to Men and quite a few just having had PS. I’m just dropping by to let you know that there’s a huge crowd of strangers out here pulling for you and holding you in our prayers. May you have a famously successful surgery and a record-breaking recovery! Hurry home to start enjoying the New Bod!! Best Wishes-

Take your vitamins..
posted on 10/29/09 7:13 pm

Enough said.. I will work on a post about my near death experience for not taking my vitamins..  The short of it is that I fainted from low vitamin levels and feel into the Marina and nearly drowned..  Had it not been for brave people willing to risk there lives to save mine I would not be here.. Thank you to these men and woman..
