Surgeon Testimonial

John George Zografakis
My first impression of Dr. Zografakis was a good one. He was very intelligent , compassionate and understanding.
Right off the back I knew I could open up and speak with him about my questions and concerns.
Dr. Zografakis has a very pleasant attitude and is willing to work with you every step of the way.
His staff are just as nice as he is.
I am truly happy to be a patient of his.
Dr. Z, you are like a angel with wings : )

My Time Has Come 9/3/08
The Lord has been so good to me through this uphill journey. I have learned a lot about the surgery and about different people along the way. I have made some pit stops and even called it off at one point in time . I was tired , but the Lord carried me through, just like the poem " Foot prints in the sand". When I thought I was walking alone and struggled to even get up, it was the Lord who carried me.
Thank you to all of my supportive friends. All of you mean so much to me. Your words have uplifted me and made me feel special. Please for all of you God fearing men and women, keep me in you prayers.
My surgery day is set for November 19Th 2008 @11:20 am. I got my wonderful and exciting news today. Man I tell y'all, the Lord is good and I praise and thank him everyday.
Here is some things that I have to do right before surgery........
Monday October 27Th is my pre op class  from 8:30 am - 12:30 pm
November 4Th I start my 2 week Opti Fast diet.
November 12Th is my pre admission testing and  I will need one set of lab work to be done. Other than that, I will be set to move forward to have my surgery. I will keep everyone updated on how things are going for. Well until then, you all take care, be encouraged and have a blessed night.
Love Laina

I celebrate with you! God is good. I had my WLS 4mths ago and it is the best decision I have made for myself in a long time. Enjoy the journey "Onward and downward".
