Surgeon Testimonial

Adolfo Fernandez
My surgeon Adolfo Fernandez best known by his staff & patients as FUZZ is a wonderful man, surgeon, dr, etc. The first time I saw him was at a support group mtg I attended with a friend who had RNY by Fuzz, I thought gosh he looks really young but man he's good looking. Then when he talked & answered questions I realized how intelligent he was & that he really knew his stuff when it came to WLS. He has always been very nice when I've seen him. He came in the "holding" room before my surgery & talked a while to me, my momma, Ma & my bff Becca. Becca took a pic of me & him~gotta figure out how to get it downloaded so you all can see him too. His nurse Elizabeth is one of my favorite ppl that I've dealt with. She is sooooo sweet & just down to earth. Also, Jeff the psychologist & Amber the nutritionist are very good at what they do. The aftercare program they offer & how they make sure you understand what you have to do & need to do to succeed is awesome. They are all there & willing to help at any time. Everyone I've had to deal with~Fuzz, Elizabeth, Amber, Jeff, other hospital staff, EVERYBODY~has been great to me & I truly believe it was b/c of their care & concern for me that made my whole preop, surgery, hospital stay & now post op so easy for me to deal with. I can't say enough how great Fuzz & his staff are. I would recommend & do recommend him to anyone that has asked or may ask about a WLS surgeon

On my way
on May 14, 2008 2:11 pm

So today I get a vm fr/Susan (one of my nurses). She called to tell me she was fixing to send in my paperwork for approval & noticed it was my birthday so she couldn't pass up the opportunity to call & say "Happy Birthday" & to let me know my paperwork was being sent in & she'll let me know when she gets a response. YIPPPPEEEEEE!!!!!! Needless to say, after the msg from Susan I wasn't much good at work the rest of the day~good thing she called in the afternoon....hehehehehe

I have such great family & friends. I love them all so much. They all support me thru everything. I'm so blessed. Today has been a great day. I'll soon be on the losing side with lots of my friends on here & the ones at work. I can't wait.

Thanks for stopping by.

xoxo
