Surgeon Testimonial

Garth Davis M.D.
Dr. Davis was not what I had expected after watching 'Big Medicine'. He was professional, no nonsense and confident. He asked if I had any questions and the question that I did have was more of a concern or worry. He answered my question and told me not to worry. With the confidence that he exhibited that worry was alleviated at that moment. What more could a person ask for? He is serious about follow up care and support meetings and rightfully so.

The office staff seemed helpful, nice and patient.

oh...what a day!!! Week before last a person from the surgeons office called and left a message to shcedule my appointment.  I was a bit confussed at the time so I decided to wait until the following week to call her back.  So that is what I did with Early sitting right beside me hearing the entire conversation.  I told the women (who by the way admitted that she was the person who had originally called me and left the message) on the phone that I was in my first month of management.  She stated that usually they do not get our info until we had completed our second month of management.  She encouraged me to go ahead and schedule the appointment and she would call medical weight management and see what was up and call me back and cancel if need be.......I never rec'd that call back.  So the following week I start calling the surgeons office, the coordinator and I left messages back and forth for a couple of days ( she works days, I work night).  All that to say Early and I went to the surgeons office only to fing out that I no longer had an appointment and they could not work me in.  All is not lost however, I have always and will always believe that my God works in mysteriuos ways.  Since I had this "appointment" coming up I did get off my behind and get some of the records that I had been dragging my feet on getting.  Thank you God for being wiser than I.

I went for my glucose tolerance today they stuck me every hour X4.  I drank the tropical punch flavored "sugar", it tasted bad even cold.  In an hour I felt dizzy and naseus.....yuk.  I decided to take my BS with Early's meter to my complete shock my BS was 290.  No wonder I felt bad.

I scheduled my sleep study for 11/2 and surgeon appt for 10\25.  I'm not sure why I am seeing the surgeon now but I'll take it.  I thought I had to wait until I completed my 3 months of weight management.
