Surgeon Testimonial

Joseph Afram
When I originally met Dr. A as I like to call him, I thought wow he has no beside manner what so ever. Yet that didn't make me stop going to him. I would rather have his expertise. I really loved how the obesity center is one stop shopping. They have a nutrionist, psychologist, personal training and plastic surgeon on staff. In addition, his front office staff is so helpful and friendly. He has weekly group session meetings with patients at various stages in the process. I have now grown attached to Dr. A and his staff and am looking forward to working with them for the remainder of my life. I love that the center is committed to helping you for life!

Hello Everyone,

My name is Keesha.  I am a single mom living in Washington DC.  I am hoping to have GBS in the coming weeks.  I just finished the 6 month diet insurance requirement and hope to have an answer from my insurance company in the next week or so.  So keep your fingers crossed for me

My Story

I swear I have been on a diet since I was 14.  14 and 135lbs.  Gosh how I wish I was 135lbs now.  My weight has steadily increased over the years to my now high of 335lbs.  I've gained 200lbs in almost 20 years.  My weight begain to ballon during the deadliest of times in Washington DC.  The more friends I lost to the violence, the more I ate.  I've been on every diet imaginable, heck I have even made up some.  I would lose weight then gain it back and then some.  I am now seeking to end his cycle and become the best mom I can be.  I am praying that my insurance approves everything soon.  I can't wait to be more mobile, more healthy!
