Surgeon TestimonialJamie 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.
He 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.
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!
Called 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.
I met with the team yesterday, haven't met the nutritionist, yet, but to a person, they were so supportive and informed. Wow.
