Surgeon Testimonial

Stephan Myers, M.D.
I honestly can't say enough good things about Dr. Myers and the Fresh Start Bariatrics staff. Dr. Myers is there to make sure you have long term success. I had been to other seminars, and Dr. Myers was not only there (at the others, the surgeons were not at the seminars), but he led the entire seminar explaining everything more thouroughly than anyone ever had. He has a personal interest in this because he has watched his parents suffer with obesity. I was very impressed!

Their program prepares you so well for surgery and post op. He is kind, and truly cares about your success.

Dr.Myers and Mike, his assistant, saw me before surgery, and twice after surgery that day, and each day in the hospital. Then, you are given Dr. Myers cell phone number in case you have any problems when you leave the hospital, you will be able to reach him directly.

I was so comfortable knowing Dr. Myers was perfoming my surgery.

I would highly recommend Dr. Myers and Fresh Start Bariatrics to anyone considering surgery. They are all wonderful.

Dr. Myers was even at the support group meeting! Thank you Dr. Myers!

    Prayers and good thoughts are coming your way Patty. You are in good hands with Dr. Myers, Rosa and all the staff at Riverside. I had my surgery with Dr. Myers 10 months ago and am down 118 pounds. You will not believe how this changes your life and your families lives for the better. Take care, Mary Cameron

    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!

WIND, WALK AND MINI CHALLENGE

Hi all!

Last Sunday was a windy day!  We had 70 mph winds causing a lot of damage and power outages.  We were very fortunate.  We did not lose our power at the shop or home. A big tree limb fell on the house, but caused no damage.  I just can't even imagine what it was like on the coast.  The kids have been out of school for 3 days due to no electric.  Two of the city schools will also be closed tomorrow since their electric has not yet been restored.

I just signed up to participate in the Walk from Obesity.  You can walk as much or as little as you want.  I'm thrilled, first of all. to be able to walk, and to be able to help fight obesity which has greatly affected my life.  Please join me or support me in this fight if you can.  The website is Walkfromobesity.com and they have walks all over the country.

I've been bouncing around between 229 and 230  I joined the OH Halloween mini challenge.  I'm hoping it will help get me in gear and get me exercising more so I can get some more pounds off!  I set my goal to weigh 220 at halloween - it's going to take some work!

Hope you are all doing well. ~Patty
