Surgeon Testimonial

Kristoffel Dumon, M.D.
Kris is the only bariatric surgeon at the University of Penn hospital that my insurance allows to do the surgery. Which is fine by me, I really liked Kris! He explained everything and answered all my questions. rnMy sister is a nurse is the PAC-U at the University of Penn hospital, so he sees her often. And everytime he does I get a phone call that he is asking about me. He remembers me! He wants to know what I am doing and what else I have left to do to get this surgery done. I don't know any other doctor let alone surgeon who would do that. I feel safe in his hands.

I found another doctor....
on January 12, 2010 4:32 am
I went to the doctor again to get my papers together to start my medically managed diet for my insurance company. I made an appt at the same practice with a different doctor than I had last time. He was wonderful. He said he supported whatever choice I made, and he thinks that it will be good. Hes on the heavy side too and knows what its like to diet and shed the pounds, then have them pile right back on! He signed my paper! So now I am two months in and can not wait to be done with these 6 months so i can finally get closer to the surgery. I am sooooo excited that the ball is FINALLY rolling!
