Surgeon Testimonial

Demesvar A. Jean-Baptiste M.D.
There is NOTHING I could say negative about my Dr. Dr Baptiste has a new office staff...a new nurse and a new nutritionist. I have not havd the pleasure of meeting the nutritionist as of yet but she must be better than Judy the old nutritionist. She was never heavy a day in her life and spoke to us weightloss patients as though it is as easy as the flick of a switch to just stop eating. If it were that easy We would have no need for Dr Baptiste.

The new nurse (sorry i cannot think of her name off the top of my head) is extremely cxoncerned for us as patients and our success. She actually takes us into a examining room (unlike Kathy previous nurse, who ONLY conversed in her office)I truly believe this new nurse is truly concerned about each and every patient.She literally takes the time and answers all questions she possibly can and NEVER makes you feel rushed!

Dr JB is a skilled professional with a personality that surpasses any other Dr I have ever HAD THEPLEASURE OF MEETING.HIS BEDSIDE MANNER IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL.

I would recommend Dr JB and his staff in a heart beat!

LOST 106 lbs!
on November 9, 2008 4:41 am
Recently went through a IVF Cycle (trying to get pregnant, and I tied my tubes in past so had to go around that).  I was gaining a few pounds from the meds....but I had my retrieveal on Nov 5th...got 15 follicles...10 fertilized and on Nov  8th we had four good embryos put back inside me.  So now its a waiting game.  I have pregnancy test taken on Nov 19th and will know If  truly conceived.  if I did conceive there is ONLY a 10% chance of twins.  But I am ok with that as long as it takes!

Anyway I was told to weigh myself everyday to make sure I was not hyper ovulating and retaining water....well...I can tell youI lost the weight from the meds and then some!  I am now at 138 even as of this am. Its a good thing bec If this baby takes I will be certain to gain some baby weight!

I know you are all saying its not healthy to be pregnant so soon after wls.  I reached goal way ahead of time..I am able to eat everything I need to and want and I was cleared by a perinatologist (high risk ob dr)  He says as long as I maintain my food intake and add a glass of milk and 2 slices of cheese to my daily eating habits now the baby will be fine!
 
So as of this am....I am down 106 lbs!
