"I haven't met with Dr. Ali yet. I have my first consult on January 24th.
I am now post-op. Dr. Ali and everyone else at U.C. Davis was absolutely wonderful. From the surgical staff to the nursing staff to the nutritionist to Judy, the program coordinator, everyone was wonderfully supportive and friendly. I couldn't have been happier with the whole experience thus far. Everyone took their time explaining all the negative and positive aspects of the surgery prior to my having it. After care has been wonderful as well. They are always there to answer any questions I have regarding nutrition, exercise, etc."
