Surgeon Testimonial

Steven C. Poplawski, M.D., F.A.C.S.
I meet Dr. Poplawski on September 12/2006 in MI at my first consult! My first impression of Dr. Poplawski was how friendly he was! He explained how the procedure was done, how long it takes, the pros and cons of having it done, what to do before surgery, the risks with the surgery, etc. His staff were very helpful and kind. I can't really say there was anything I dislike about him! I mean we did wait for a long time to see him but there were about 20 other people in front of me! So it shows that he took the time to listen and answer any questions and concerns that one might have! He was very foward about the risks! But I see it this way, you can't say you didn't know what the risks were! At first I was scared and that is why it took me almost a year to make my decision! OH really helped me see that as a surgeon Dr. Pop is responsible for letting us know the risks! One thing that stood out the most was his smile and sense of humor! Thanks for all the info. Dr. Pop!

Sorry it's been awhile but I have been busy. I had my three month post-op visit with Dr. Pop and everything went great. My weight loss is at 37% thats 13% higher than the average. WOOHOO! My energy level is up. I work out everyday. Oh yeah and I dance the night away at the wedding on the 24th without getting out of breath. What a high light for me. I bike everday for at least 15 mins, do weights(trying to build my arms) and walk, walk, and walk some more. I love that my daughter has started excercise with me. She always asks me now if she eats something if it has protien. A 4-year-old??? I love that I'm giving her a good example now. She see's me active and I encourage her to be active to be healthy. I also went to the LaSalle festival and I took my daughter for the first time on a ride and didn't feel embaressed. Life is soooooo good. I'm looking for a bathing suit because we are going away in two weeks camping for 20 days. I'm hate my upper thighs. But I know that it will take hard work for them to trim down. I won't give up. I also got rid of my BIG clothes and I had about ten garbage bags full. I use to be small once before and I had kept all my clothes and I actually am starting to fit into them again. Another wow moment for me. I'm getting compliments all the time and it feels great. But I won't let it get to my head. I also drink lots of water it helps with the elasticity of the skin and shedding weight. But like I said I'm loving life!!!! I have my niece and nephews grad this wednesday and Saturday big celebration. WOOHOO! Again I love life!!! TTYL
