Surgeon Testimonial

Marina Kurian, M.D.
My first impression of Dr. Kurian was wow she is young. (lol) Off the back I liked her. When she first meet me she told me wow look at that big smile you have. She sat down with me and my mother and told us everything we needed to know about the surgery. She even asked personal questions to get to know what type of person I was. She was very genuine and treated me more than just another patient. On the day of surgery she came in my prep room and chatted with my family and I. We spoke about cruises and places wev'e traveled to before. We laughed and shared each other stories. You would think that I was not about to have surgery any minute. When I first went to the center I had three doctors to pick from. I ask the receptionist which one had the closest date and she told me Dr. Kurian, so I decided to go with her. My mom wanted me to go with the most popular surgeon but I told her all three surgeons were good. I had a gut feeling about Dr. Kurian and even though I had to reschedule my surgery and had the opportunity to pick a different surgeon and decided to stick with Dr. Kurian again. I just knew she was the right person for the job and I was right. She is wonderful and I have no regrets picking her or doing the surgery. Thanks Dr. Kurian. You’re the Best!!!

P.S. The only problem I had at NYUMC was the coordinator NILSA. That woman is the worst and I plan on writing a long letter about her horriable service. She is the worst and needs to learn how to do her job better.

7/30/08 New Update 2nd Fill

 

Here I am back again to give you guys an update on my progress with WLS.  On Monday I finally went to the doctor to get a 2nd Fill.  To my surprise I lost 10pds since the last time I saw my doctor.  She told me I'm doing great and if I was sure I wanted a fill.  I told her that I wanted another small fill because I am leaving for Barbados on Friday and will not be able to run to the doctor in case I'm too tight or something happen.  So she gave me one which hurt a little this time around.  It seems like she used a different type of needle compare to last time.  This time she had to apply a lil more pressure to get a reading.  It felt a little weird but at the end I was ok.  I started bleeding a little but it eventually stop by the end of the day.  I am so ready to go on vacation and have a little fun.  My friend Keno was suppose to go with me but he never bought his ticket so now I'm going alone which is fine with me.  Lately me and him have been having so much problems.  We are not even in a relationship and we fight like we are in one. One minute I'm the star in his world and with a drop of a dime I don't even exsist.  He is so self observe with himself and the other women he is juggling that he can't keep up with nothing these days.  Lately I've been catching him in alot of lies.  He doesn't even realize that I know he is lying to me.  I don't know if he does it not to hurt me but little does he know that it does hurt me.  I just wish he grows up and decide what he wants in his life.  I feel like he keeps me around because deep down he wants to be with me but in reality not ready for me now.  Its like he want to have all his fun right now and when he done come to me.  But the problem with that is I can't wait on him like this.  Especially with the way he has been treating me lately.  Its one thing to date someone and spend lots of time with them but its another when you hardly see or talk to that person and yet they still expect things to be the same.  His problem is that he isn't consistant.  I feel like if he knows that he doesn't have the time or energy to put in with me then he needs to just leave me alone and let my true prince charming sweep me off my feet.  I don't want to get to deep into my personal life but sometimes I just need to vent.  He said he will work on it so I will sit back and see.  I believe in him even though he think I dont.  I will continue to pray for the both of us together or apart.  Well on a brighter note I had to go bra shopping this weekend and I went from a 44DDD back down to a 42D.  I could not believe it.  I have not been that size since college.  Also when I was looking for clothes to pack on my trip I went thru all my old tight summer clothes and they all fit.  Some of them are even too big.  God Bless this lapband.  Well that's all Folks.  I will come back again after my vacation.  Don't worry I will have lots to talk about and lots of pictures of you all to see. Take Care.

Keno does not know what he's missing. Soon he will realize what a good woman you are and when he's ready you'll be taken by your prince charming. Its not fair to you that he's only around when its convenient to you. That goes to show you that he can't be in a relationship. The number 1 important detail in a relationship is compromise. I don't think he is ready to compromise his time. I know it might hurt cuz I can tell you're really into him but you need to let him go. You are now becoming even more sociable and you are going to meet great men. However, if you're out one night and meet a great guy but that just so happens to be the week Keno is treating you good, you might miss out on a good opportunity. Time heals and you might just need to let him go and go on about YOUR business cuz it seems like he goes on about his business whenever the hell he feels like it. He doesn't deserve you. Anyway, thank you for your compliments. And yes we must meet up gurl. You are doing so good and I'm very proud of you. Have lots of fun and barbados and remember go on about your business.
