Surgeon Testimonial

Niazy Selim, M.D., Ph.D.
I love my doctor, he did my surgery robotically and although I had a huge bruised belly for a couple of weeks after I was only in the hospital for 30 hours and I did not take any pain medication at home. I had no drain tubes and so far (knock on wood) I have had no issues with my surgery and my six incisions are healing nicely. I would recommend Dr. Selim to anyone who lives in the Kansas City AREA!!!

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I come from a family of overweight and normal weight people. People always said you have such a pretty face if you just lost weight. Well I always thought if I just lost weight. Well I tried everything. I did the diet pills, Weight Watchers, the grapefruit diet, the starve yourself diet. I would lose then I would put the weight back on plus more. After I had my son my weight just kept going up and up. Finally my insurance plan started to pay for the surgery so I started looking into it in 2009. It's been a struggle and a journey I am glad I have taken.

22/24
posted on 1/4/12 4:41 am

I just received a pair of 22/24 pants from my sister in law. She thought they were 18 and when she got home the actual tag said 22/24 so she asked me if I wanted them for when I get down to that size. Well guess what I took them home and put them on and wow they fit!!!! I am so excited. The only problem with them is they are petite and so they are a little short when I sit down but I will enjoy wearing them!!!
