Surgeon Testimonial

David Gould, M.D.
I had my first one-on-one appointment with Dr. Gould in August. I had heard him speak at the monthly support group meetings, and was anxious to meet him face-to-face. I was very comfortable with him and he was very direct and told me everything I must do and must not do in order to be successful. I'm one who wants to hear the whole story, not sugar coating, and he gave it to me straight. I hear very good things about him from other people and I have the utmost confidence in him for my surgery.

Well, this was a really, really good day!  Our monthly meeting at DHMC was held today.  I was very excited to get to this meeting because I was pretty sure I'd lost the 15 pounds, or darn close to it, required by the program.  In addition, this was my third meeting and you are required to attend a minimum of 3 meetings before you can meet with the dietician and surgeon, AND I got a call from DHMC on Thursday that the rest of the requirements on my checklist were done.  So, I really wanted to get on that scale.  At the last 2 meetings, I was weighed at the end of the meeting.  I arrived a little earlier than usual and they were weighing people before the meeting started, so I hopped on. To my great disappointment, I had lost only 11 pounds on their scale.  So, I just told myself that it was only 4 more pounds and I could do that pretty quickly.  I sat down for the meeting and as always it was very informative.  They started with a presentation of what is involved before having your surgery and they went over their program requirements.  I almost jumped out of my seat when up on the screen it said "10 pound weight loss requirement" and the speaker proceeded to tell us that they changed the requirement from 10 to 15.  I couldn't believe it.  I was so happy that I went home and called everyone I could think of after the meeting!!  I am now ready to meet with the dietician, then the surgeon and then I'll get a date.  I can't believe how quickly all of this has happened.   There's a good possibility I could have this surgery sometime in July and my birthday is in July.  Wouldn't that be something to start my new life on my own birthday!!
