"I like to mix it with Vanilla Soy Milk and it cuts the sweetness and makes it creamier. "

Bengt Pehrsson
"Dr. Pehrsson was very nice and very informative. He answered all of my questions, as well as any my fiance had. His office staff was wonderful! They were all very nice and never made me feel awkward. My only concern was my questions about birth control pills. Dr. Pehrsson said that I should stop the week before and start a week after the surgery. All the paperwork and his LVN, Pat, said that I should stop two weeks before and start two weeks after. His aftercare program is also very good. He does emphasize that people all heal differently and begin their post-op programs at different rates. Some may drink liquids for one week then start on food while others may drink liquids for a few weeks. He did also address the risks involved. Overall, I would rate Dr. Pehrsson a 10! "
