Surgeon Testimonial

Robert L Richard
this man has a great personality and tells it like it is. Open and honest will answer questions and work to help you achieve a goal. Aftercare is a real process with this group and support group is great. we all laugh and talk about what is going on with us. It is a new group but the doc has been doing this for years with great success. I give them the 10/10 so far . I am almost 8 weeks out .
The office staff and set up there is all getting prepared as our group just started and insurance coverage for the hospital is new. The kinks are being worked out and Nikki in the office just started with her hands full doing Great too. I have had good experience so far some in the group had insurance billing issues but they are being worked out I just wanted to make sure it is understood I am part of the Gwinnett Medical at Duluth bariatric office not seen in Gainsville. I know he is great at both offices from all I have talked to but they do not have him listed under Duluth as of this time

OMG!!!!
posted on 1/27/12 2:44 pm
   I really was depressed when the gym called to remind me I needed to weigh in for the BIGGEST Loser contest that  I had signed up for late October. I just knew this was gonna be bad and did not want to sign in to be  weighed. I know my diet and everything had been wild and crazy over the last few months. Well Guess I was not the only one with the crazy!!! I did it while at gym today and was told I may be the winner so far with all who have sign in for the reweigh. I have managed to get the 11# off I had put on after starting to date my old boyfriend.
    Not only have I lost weight but I realized my stomach is clearing up as well - I am back to cooking bariatric friendly meals and keeping to my diet. All the cooking I was told was low fat ,I really wonder now. I also am not as stressed and feeling relaxed giving my stomach a rest. decreased snacking etc are all to my benefit. Thankfully I acted on my instincts and found ME as important again.
    I also want to THANK all the people and OH family that have backed me with support and encouragement .
 Okay update as of 1/30/11 I got the final report I made 2nd place but I still came in 2nd and I was not where I had planned so YIPEE!!!!! love the accomplishment and it seems I will have a trophy as well woohoo.  I want the Tshirt I am getting more and would love products at the smoothie place next door- go City blenders protien low carb smoothies.
