Surgeon Testimonial

Matthew A. Fitzer
The first time I met Dr. Fitzer I was immediatly comfortable. He was very knowledgeable and put me at ease. I had been to another local surgeon whose attitude was rude and condesending. Dr. Fitzer was the EXACT opposite. I did't not feel like a failure because I am opting to have the surgery.

I LOST MY SON AND MY NEPHEW!! WOOHOO!!
OK, not literally but I have lost 83 lbs!! That totals my son's and nephew's weight give or take a little. I was playing around with my son and picked him up like a baby (hubby yelled because he weighs 50lbs and I am still not supposed to lift over 15, I couldn't help myself he is so cute) I said I can't believe I was carrying more than this amount of weight around in January. I am still amazed every day. Another WOW moment last night. We took our son to a local field days and I was able to FIT on the bumper cars with him. I almost cried. Usually my sister or brother-in-law have to ride with him while the other takes their son. This is what I did this for!! My son was so happy that his Mommy could ride with him. NO MORE HOLDING ME BACK!! I am going to enjoy life like never before!!

Wow - you got to ride with your son. That is so wonderful. I still wait for the day when I can hop into a rollercoaster car with my son and not be afraid I'm going to cause us to plunge into the sky. You stay so upbeat -- that's great. Hey - post some new pics so we can all share you excitement!
