Surgeon Testimonial

Darren Glass
I really think I have made a great decision in choosing Dr. Glass. He was straightforward and no nonsense which is what I was looking for. I do not want to know about the good thing that happen with this surgery, obviously most people know about that part. I wanted to know about what happens afterwards, what he expects from this surgery for me, and he was able to answer all of those questions, as well as making sure that I am really ready for this surgery, not just letting me have it because I want to, and in turn, making sure that this is going to be a sucessful outcome. I really appreciated that from him. Following surgery I had complications and he and I both were kept awake for the night after surgery. But he really seemed to care, and even came in to check on me on his day off since I was still in the hospital. THE SECOND SURGERY: He came in and SAVED MY LIFE!! I had a leak, and he came in from his vacation to literally save my life. He then came and checked on me every single day of my 10 day stay, even though he was on vacation. He really seemed to care about me. He is amazing. I would recommend him to anyone.

    Tuesday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench! ~ JudyAnne

11 months
It has been a little over 11 months now. Finally I am starting to feel the actual affect of surgery. I am actually energetic, my muscles are finally starting to come back, and my hair is just about back to normal. I am even seeing a difference in the skin starting to go back a bit now. I know my recovery took a lot longer than average, and I know that it was from the complications. I am still so glad I did this, I wish it would have been sooner. I have so much more self confidence, I have such good health, and I am going to be around for my daughter now. I never could have said that with such certainty before. I even allowed myself to be photographed in a swimsuit on vacation, and actually LIKED what I saw. I am down 123 pounds and in a size 6 pants and S/M for shrits. Wow is all I can say about this surgery. Now I just need to save up the money for a boob job.....,
