Surgeon Testimonial

Walter Medlin, M.D.
I met Dr Medlin at the information meeting at St. Mary's Hospital and liked him right away. I asked a number of questions, as did others in the meeting, and he answered them all. He even stayed longer than he had anticipated.

My impression hasn't changed since I met him. He is nice, helpful, very knowledgable and caring.

His office staff is good and helpful. They respond fairly quickly to questions.

I knew the risks of surgery upfront because they were explained in detail at the information meeting.

I don't have anything particularly negative to say about him. He denied my request for a medication when I was looking to go home, but the next day he had reconsidered it and gave me the prescription. I think a doctor who will think things over and change their mind is impressive.

I think Dr. Medlin is an excellent doctor, an excellent surgeon and I'd recommend him highly!

Enjoying Life!
posted on 6/3/07 6:58 pm
Gosh, it's been a long time since I've posted anything - life has gotten busy!  I'm feeling really good, staying at 165 lbs. and wearing a size 10/12.  I really haven't tried to lose more weight and enjoy my life and how I feel now.  I'm working full time and driving to Paynesville everyday.  Lately, I've been shopping for work clothes because I had not replenished my summer wardrobe.  It is so much fun to go into stores and try on normal size clothes!  It's weird to walk by Lane Bryant and not even think about going there! I went shopping with my daughter the other night in Maple Grove; we went to Anthropology and I bought a pair of capris size 12.  It was so cool to try them on and they fit perfectly and look great.  I am so thankful for this surgery and the change it has brought to my life.  I have more energy and feel better than I have in years!
