Surgeon Testimonial

Thomas Sonnanstine M.D.
My first impression was... wow this guy is very personable. I work with different docs every day and usually they dont have a whole lot to say. Dr. Sonnanstine isnt like the rest. He took the time to answer my questions and ease my concerns about the surgery. He is very involved as a doc. He was very open and honest about risk factors actually he was pretty blunt about it which is great! He has a great personality. He is a very skilled doc. He is the best at what he does. He has a great before and after care program. I feel that I was fully prepared on what to expect after surgery. I would and do recommend him with complete confidence to anyone interested in WLS. This man is AMAZING!

    Just had to say that after I read Angela's post on the KY board, I had to stop by your page here and wish you and your family the best. I can only imagine. I will be praying for all of you. Remember, you have friends on the KY board.

1/10/06 I am a 26 yr old married mother of 4 awesome munchkins ages 6 1/2, 5, 3, and 13 mos. I have been overweight for as long as I can remember. I recall joining weight watchers when I was about 10 yrs old. It was awful going to those meetings and getting weighed in front of everyone being as young as I was. Most of my family is overweight and just like me they have struggled with weight loss. 2 family members of mine have had successful WLS and the results are amazing! What an inspiration!! I have been pondering having the surgery for atleast 3 years now. I actually had a consultation scheduled approx. 2 yrs ago and I chickened out. I believe now that I am ready to move forward. I am sick of the back pain, not being able to play with my children and other various issues. I have the support of my close friends and family.

Working on my leg piece... still need more work and more color... so far I have only had 3 sessions... lots more ink to come!
The Dragon head is down towards my ankle and the rear end of its body is up on my upper thigh.. we will soon be filling in the remaining part of the body of the dragon soon. Also on the picture of the dragon head, below it is a tattoo of a rose which has since been covered by the lotus flower on my ankle.
