Surgeon Testimonial

Jamie Loggins MD.
I saw his picture in the local paper advertising a informational meeting. Liked his face, what can I say. So, I went, sweating, short of breath, couldn't go in, walked around, then wnet in....hey, wasn't the biggest girl there, phew.rnHe was informative, abit cool, but warmed up, was so proud of his program and staff, and just made me feel like if he felt that way about them, how does he feel about his patients.rn Everything was explained at length and throughly, with a 40 minute video that went through all the stages with real people, and then Dr, Loggins had invited 2 graduates to be available, and also, wheich I foulnd interesting, a plastic surgeon to speak about the afternath of drastic weight loss. They were not dodging any subject and I was impressed. But I have to say, the plastic surgeon did not make it sound great, even repairs.Disfiguring scars came up , alot!rnCalled my PCP the next day and asked for a referral. Hasn't been done yet, but Monday, then I don't know how quickly they respond...so, here I go.rnrnI met with the team yesterday, haven't met the nutritionist, yet, but to a person, they were so supportive and informed. Wow.rn

Forgot to check in with everyone yesterday to celebrate my one year Surgiversary!!! I can't believe a year has passed already!  I see Dr. Loggins tomorrow in Lewiston and I guess my NUT, had blood drawn on Monday so I am sure they will have some results but not all.
What a year this has been, besides regaining my health , energy and sense of myself, I have met so many wonderful people on this board, I feel I have made some life time friends.  This is such a unique experience that only you all know what I have been through. You lifted me up when times were tough and set me down when I needed settin'.  I wouldn't be here without all of your support.
Remembering my sister, who died Dec 05 at age 51, and my brother who died May 07 at age 46 who were the reason for me to go to the informational meeting and get this DONE-I am forever grateful to My God for seeing me through this year and giving me another chance to live longer and better.
Thank you all! Love you lots!!
