Surgeon Testimonial

Salvador Ramos II
Dr. Ramos came to PMC as our B. Surgeon. He's a very nice and concerned doc. When I had my 1st appt with him he went over everything from point A to point B about the surgery. Everything that he said was true, not saying that he would lie, but he held up to his words. I was surgery number 52 at the hospital. His bedside manner was just as good as his surgical competence. If I had to redo this surgeyr for any reason I would want him to do it. There were several times that he checked upon me, and that made me realize taht he has concerns with his pt's. Overall I couldn't have asked for a better surgeon in general!!

Life after 1st fill
on March 6, 2010 7:45 am
It has been a while since I have posted anything.

Everything has went great since my first fill..I can tell a HUGE difference, too.  With my 1st fill I got 5.5 cc's. I wasnt hungry til the following day. There are times I dont feel hungry all day long but I try to force myself to eat a lil of something. The protein drinks are amazing and I love them now(only the fruity ones tho). I am down 30 pounds so far. I have 30 more to go and I will be completely satisfied.

1st Follow-up appt.
on February 3, 2010 5:06 pm
I went for my 1st follow-up appt yesterday(2-2)..My BP has lowered and my weight is now 215. I dint get my fill because the dr don't like doing them before 4 wks PO. So I go back in 2 weeks to get my fill. I have finally found some protein drinks that I absolutely love. They are the lime ones from GNC, even tho they r a tad bit exspensive they are very well worth it in my book. I ahve gotten sick 1x so far and that will be the last time I hope and pray.  Seems like I wanna keept the hiccups tho, hopefully they will subside sometime soon. It never fails; when I'm in public is when I get them the worse..lol

My Story

I had my lap-band surgery on 1-131-10. I lost 10 pounds before sugery which was a no brainer when ur on clear liquids..lol..Everything went great and I even got to go home later on that night, which I was suprised.  I had very little pain when waking up from surgery and a day or so afterwards. But now I am feeling great and no real problems. Protein drinks are NOT my bestest friend that's for sure. I need to find me some that my new tummy can handle.



UK 18-0...YAY for them there cats as of a few minutes ago!!!!!!
