Surgeon Testimonial

Peter Liao, M.D.
My first impression of Dr. Liao, A Calm & cool demeanor, but yet confident with his knowledge of knowing so much about "Gastric Bypass surgery, which made me comfortable and at ease. He is very professional & organized. During my hospital stay, when he ordered certain things to be done? and "If" the hospital staff, didn't comply in a timely fashion he took, matters into his own hands, and got what needed to be done and completed, Done!! I do remember that much. He is a no- non sense type of Doctor. Dr. Liao's weight management staff is Great!! Friendly, organized pretty good, and professional. Two really smart Nurse Practitoner's Aretha & Kate. The Nutritionist, Anne is wonderful too!! even down to the greeting staff, in the weight management ctr. were friendly & nice, during my many office visits. I was extremely "Blessed" to have a Excellent weight management team, who is so knowlegable in bariatrics. What did I like least about Dr. Liao? At times he seems too rushed? What should future patients know about Dr. Liao? That "he" is is Good!! at what he does!! Dr. Liao's program does have a good after care program & he emphasize's the importantance of follow up, after "wls" The after care program seems to be very structured, although I'm just a little over a month post-op. I have a six week Post-op appt. scheduled. How did he address the risks of surgery?? Clearly & calmly. I would rate Dr. Peter Liao?? "Cream of the Crop!! His, Bedside manner is a some what serious demeanor & straight to the point, of taking care of business!! Surgical competence? "Oh He know's his stuff!!" Did I say that already?? ;-)

I'am smiling from ear to ear!! & Thank You God for everything!!
My surgery, my recovery, my excess!! "wl" & my Many "Blessings" Now Can You say; Amen? Say AMEN!! again!!

Check out some of my new pics. It's been hard for me to get used to the "alien" person who happens to be Me!! when I see myself in pics? However I do like the photo's that I've put on my profile. For whatever the reasons, I got really nervous leading up to the big "surgiversary" day & date and I wanted to loose more weight? but I didn't lose as much as I could have if I'd really tried?? it was too much presure for me!! so I was not able to stay really focused and I blew it? however I did lose a few pounds & that's better than nothing & or gaining!! so all is Well!! So for you "newbies" & oldies like myself now huh? after being post-op for a YEAR!! Don't be so hard on your selves and take this "journey" one day, & one Pound at a time, & Yes there are those days when it's really hard!! to stay focused and make the right food choice's and Excercise!! it's hard to do all those things some times, but in the end it is it all worth it?? & would I do this again??? You bet I would!! I'm still pushing for the frist goal I have 32lbs to go!!! Pray for Me & cheer!! me on As I cheer for us All!! God Bless You!! in whatever stage & whatever process that you are in within your own "journey" Wishing "all" lots of Luck!! from my "lucky ladybugs" & Peace & Love!!! jbug!! Stay strong & hold on & enjoy the ride too!!! ps. it works (the tool) for however hard you work!! It & that's when you will see results!! Remember that too!!! Peace. ;-) jbug.
