Surgeon Testimonial

Denis Halmi, M.D.
Dr.Halmi is one of the best Bariatric surgeons in the northern virginia area. My consultation with him went well, he answered all my questions. I feel safe havin him perform my surgery. Now his office is another story! The front desk staff is VERY in efficient and un professional it's a shame the doctors are great and they have this staff who are, horrible, and don't know the meaning of customer service. On top of the front desk one of the doctors that works in the office who performed my endoscopy, couldn't explain to me why the next day after his procedure on me the whites of my eyes were blood red (scared me to death) when i called to talk with doctor at first he wouldnt take my call, I had to act ignorant on the phone to get a call back and the doctor was very unprofessional told me he has never had that happend and to go see my primary doctor( im like for what u did the procedure), any way make a long story short went to another doctor to find out it was from his endoscopy (I gagged really bad). Glad I dont have to see that dude anymore . If Dr.Halmi wasn't as good as he is I would be at another surgeons office a long time ago! Hope anyone else who has Dr.Halmi has had a better experience,this is my opinion only! maybe I feel this way because my office where I work we are very professional and proficient, not perfect but dam close to it.:)

Feeling Great
posted on 4/29/11 8:52 am
Well it's been 16 days since my surgery and I must say my days of having buyer's Remorse is now over! I am very happy I made the decision to have RNY done. Thanks to god no problems and the gas is gone, whew gas right after surgery is a monster. I have now lost 37 pounds and just the small amount of weight gone is great my clothes are already starting to feel better and my face is getting smaller I now have 3 chins instead of 4! My huband and I are now walking 2 miles a day and it feels great. I dont know if anyone else who has had WLS had this experience but prior to my surgery I couldn't even walk 15 steps without my back feeling like it was gonna give out on the rest of my body, but almost immediately after surgery I can walk without my back bothering me at all! I forgot to ask my surgeon at my 2 week follow-up why is that (maybe it's because the old stomache is in a different place IDK, but I will take it), so with that said I can walk with hubby and the dog and it feels good! 

And thanx to my OH family for all the well wishes and encouragement you are all marvelous!  smooches til next time. and pics are coming! I'm so lazy need to load them from my camera.  Dueces.  

P.S I am doing great with my vitamins and protien the best protien for me is EAS french vanilla and muscle milk, I tried Isopure and I couldn't do it but EAS works great!
