Surgeon Testimonial

Kenric Murayama, M.D.
Dr. Murayama, is a wonderful and kind man. When I first meet him, he understood my concerns and hardships I had gone thru. Being that I had already started the process at another place, he was still willing to take me under his wing and continue with the weight loss. His staff is great especially Aisha! Just now waiting to schedule my surgery. YEAH!!!

My Story

Hi! I am new to this group and which I found this site a long time ago.  It seems very helpful and informational.  I have thought of doing surgery for several years and finally took the step at the end of last year (2008).  I started my nutrition counsiling with Hershey Med, but now have decided to look into other options.  I considering Dr. Alan Brader at Lancaster General and also Dr. Kenric Murayama, from Penn Presbyterian Medical Center. 

I am interested in finding friends who are near me to comunicate with and others who have or going to go through the surgery.  I orginally was going to have the sleeve, but now have decided to have the gastric bypass.
