Surgeon Testimonial

Joseph Kuhn, M.D.
I am not sure if it will be him or his associate, but I prefer him to lead in my surgury from what I have seen of him at the seminar, he is by far one of the most experience and proficient at what he does. - (7-11-07)

    Thankyou Brenda!! I guess I just , well...where did you have yours done? I guess if I need any help..it's help getting started...lol...:) Terrible huh? I have been reading on here for about 3 years now and I have been seriously considering this for about 2. I have never talked to anyone...just observed mostly RNY stories and the before and after pics and some general conversations. But now I am sitting here and Monday is tomorrow and I am now realizing that the entire week before me went by and I never even called a Dr. I got my card in the mail...I got happy and posted here about it and have done nothing since. Tomorrow I plan to start making some calls...if you have any idea where the best palce to begin is, I am open for suggestions. I saw some Dr. files and really liked one I found in Dallas...I think we have a Dr. listed that's also here in Waco, but not sure if any of the places here are COE's ?? Should I post my phone number or is that not good to do. I am ready for this and help would be great! Thanks Linda

Well...sorry for not getting back with folks sooner..I did go to my seminar, it was held at the Baylor Medical Center of Dallas. I turned in my packet and I await a return of information. The seminar was very interesting. 

Today,  I went to see my Dr. kinda let him know what all was going on with me, got an updated prescription for my handicap signed, I looked at it and he had checked permanent, and he also wrote out a prescription that said the same thing, well little do they know..it won't be for long!!! I am going to beat this weight once and for all!.

He is a newer Dr. for me and I have chosen him for my Dr. from this point forward mainly because he will just about help me with what ever I need. I don't abuse it and he does have lines he will not cross...so it works out just right. However they do not have a scale to weight me on there and he sent me across the street to the local nursing home to get a weight on me. That was embarassing, but hey...got to do what we got to do sometimes. 397.4 lbs., but not for long!...:)
