Before & After There are currently no before and after photos for this member. See these instructions if you wish to submit your own Before & After photos. Surgeon Testimonial Raeann Capehart, M.D. Wow!!! I originally went in to see Dr. Wade Barker and I felt like a fat cow waiting to be chopped up. I just didnt feel comfortable. A co-worker told me about Dr. Capehart. I made my appointment and she literally spent 2 hours with me. My husband got up and left the room. ( He is special ) Very thorough. I knew I could trust her with my life. She cares alot about your health. She has the experience I have been looking for and great manner. rnrnOne of my co-workers said she did such agood job on them that she didnt even have to take pain medication after the surgery. rnrnShe only does the open procedure now. she used to do the laprascopic but she says that you cant see as well as if it were open. rnrnshe also is going to remove my gall bladder at that time because she says because later down the line your stomach will be irritated with all the acids. And I would be coming back for the indigestion. So we knock out two birds with one stone. rnrnSHE IS AWESOME. And Linda her only Staff is great. I saw Dr. Capehart on Tuesday and my insurance had called the next morning about the surgery procedure. Linda had already called them. She is always on the ball.rnrn Latest Surgery Support Comments

My Story Well, I am 29 years old. and sick of being a BIG GIRL! Actually, I love me. I thank God for where I am and who I am. But I have three beautiful sons that need momma around, to run those girls off. ( HAHA!!) I am already scheduled for my surgery and it took about 2 1/2 weeks altogether. I have been fat since after the summer of my 6th grade year in school. I can remember sneaking money and change to order Pizza Hut pizza's and would sit and eat the whole thing. SHAME, SHAME, SHAME. I always carried my weight fairly well. By the time I got married and had children I was at 250 lbs. I remember saying to myself " I wont let myself get any bigger than what I am now. I said I just wouldnt be able to live with myself if I were any bigger. WEll boy did that end quickly. Today I weigh 290 lbs. I found myself saying the same thing about hitting 300 lbs. But thats when I knew that something had to be done. Im very excited about all of this until they called and said " you are approved" THen my stomach hit the back of my back. No I was not about to get scared. I have waited years for this. So i guess that its normal to get anxious and nervous about the whole thing. |
