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.

8/20/08 Im Back from Vacation.

Well as you can tell I'm back from vacation.  I had a great time and wish I was still there.  The whole trip was perfect up until I was coming back and AA bump me off my flight.  I had to pay an extra $1,000 dollars just to get a flight back home two days later first class.  I was so upset about that but then I remember that I promise myself and my grandmother that I will not allow anyone or anything stress me anymore.  It seem like all I do lately is get upset and stress out over everything.  I let people and things get to me and when I went to visit her grave I made a vow not to do it anymore.  I realize that the same people who stress me out and hurt me are the same people who are not losing any sleep when the night come.  They wake up every morning with not a care in the world and NEVER have nothing to complain about.  While me on the other hand is so stress that sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind.  Well no more of that.  As my late grandmother would say " What will be, Will be.  I know alot of you read my blogs and know alot of things that goes on in my life.  I hope that reading my blogs help atleast one person out there.  Now lets talk about my weight loss journey.  Well when I went to Barbados I ate anything that I wanted to eat kinda.  In the morning I still had my shake for breakfast.  I was lucky to find the slim fast shake in the supermarket even though they cost an arm and a leg.  For lunch I usually treated myself to a nice restaurant and for dinner I usually went out with my cousin to eat and drink.  I went on the scale when I got back and I gained a couple of pounds  but as you all already know that does not bother me one bit.  Now that I'm back I have been going back to my routine and working out again.  I get up in the morning and go to the gym .  I want to be half my size by next summer.  Hopefully I can accomplish that.  Well that's it for now.  I'm not sure when i will go for a third fill but hopefully it will be no time soon.  Well until I post again take care.
