Surgeon Testimonial

Virginia McGrath-Weaver
My first impression was \"here is a really sweetheart of a lady who has confidence in what she does for a living and loves helping people. rnrnI was one of the few people that had severe anemia and ended up having two units of blood and she was right there with the bedside manner of friend you have known for life. rnrnI can not say enough about Dr. Weaver. I would not ever think of trying another doctor. She is the best.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I had struggled since high school and thought this is just how it has to be. I was disappointed in myself for not having any self control. I felt like such a failure as a person. Even when my grandson who is 5 said, Mawmaw your big, knowing he was just saying what kids his age say, it hurt so badly I wanted to cry.
