Surgeon Testimonial

Matt Kirkland, M.D.
Very knowledgeable and had the best small hands on such a talented man. I have a very high opinion of him. His staff well that is another story... I was a little irritated with staff on my two week follow up appointment. He was running late and they wanted to just see me and move me out. I did not appreciate that. I did not see him much in the hospital not like that is a problem. He does emphasize aftercare with the nutritionist since that is where most of our aftercare has to happen. They make you go to two support groups prior to surgery which I thought was a very good idea. He addressed all the risks of the surgery and well I was happy that there were no surprises. He is a real cutie too...what blue eyes! I rate him a 9. 10 is perfect but no one is perfect.

Its been awhile
on February 17, 2009 6:16 pm
Yeppers its been awhile since I have been here.  I guess consumed with other health issues that I keep blaming this surgery on with the PHP - nerves have been very intense and I just feel depressed and unmotivated which is so unlike me.  I have thoughts that if I just stayed at the 425 lbs that life might not be happy but I would not be in this pain - I want to enjoy things again and often think when will that happen for me again.  Its just sad to think that I did the work of losing weight to be unhappy.  I have a hard time laughing and enjoying things.  How does one break out of this?  I wish there was some magic that could just zap this stuff from my body.
