Surgeon Testimonial

Thomas Clark
My first impression of Dr. Clark is that he truly cares about his patients and wants us to become healthier and happier people. He outlines all the risks and benefits and will answer any question you have. He stresses that aftercare is extremely important to our success after WLS. So far I am extremely pleased with him and the WLS program is very well organized. His office staff are friendly and professional and always there for you when you have a question or a problem. rnrnDr. Clark, is one of the BEST Surgeons. Low Complication rates, Successful patients, fantastic support team. Awesome office staff. He doesn't to Laproscopic, but he makes the timiest 3 1/2 inch incison. He's awesome. Can't recommend a better surgeon. Come to VA to have your Surgery with Dr. Clark!!!

    Hi Jane, I just want to thank you for your candid posts and for the photos that you've so graciously shared with all of us. I'm having an abdominal lipectomy in two days and it's given me a true view of what I can expect. Hope you are feeling better about your surgery. I'll bet that they're right and that once your swelling has subsided you'll be very satisfied. Thanks again, Julie

Update on me
on July 26, 2007 9:42 am
Still maintaining within 5 lbs. It seems to go up and down everyday but overall I'm very happy and wearing size 4's and sometimes 2's. I'm a bit of a health freak now. I've even finally quit smoking for good. The Nicotine patch did it for me this time.

I spent 15 days this summer in Europe with my mom and 8 year old and had an amazing time sightseeing and shopping. One thing I noticed was that Europeans are not fat despite the fatty foods. It's all the walking they do that keeps the pounds off. I walked my little butt off the whole time and ate whatever I wanted. I did gain three pounds but have since dropped it by going back to my "regular" diet.

Life is good for once. I feel like things are going my wy despite dealing with mom's illness. I have faced up to the fact that she i eventually going to leave this earth. I've accepted it even though it's hard to imagine my life without her.

I've been seriously dating the same man for the last 2 months. He's wonderful to me and is also a health nut. He treats me like gold. I will be moving in with him sometime before the end of the year to a horse property in Williamsburg, VA. I plan on finishing my studies because I only have one class left and then my exam. I'd like to work from home. The property is huge and needs someone to help take care of it. I also am going back to the thing I love the most with his full support. Glass working. I am setting up a fusing studio in his garage and hopefully be able to eek out a living. He supports me 100%. I love him dearly. Best thing that has happened to me in a long time. Sometimes I feel like he's my good karma for all the bad things that have happened to me. My reward for enduring multiple tragedies.
