I had my surgery April 8, 2010. Dr. Ferrari was wonderful. I had the gastric bypass. His staff was very professional and caring. I was blessed that i was approved after one week.I'm 3 days post-op and I'm doing well. Still sore as to be expected but overall I'm very happy with the turnout. I would highly recommend Dr. Ferrari to anybody interested in having weight loss surgery.     — zoegirlcd

I had my surgery on June 2003 and it was the best decision I ever made. It changed my life and my children. I have thought them great eating habits and they will even let me know when I am eating something that is not good for. I started at 270lbs and now weigh 155 lbs. I recenlty joined a Bootcamp to lose 30 more and to get toned. I started that 12 weeks ago and have already lost 16 inches and 10% body fat. I am very motivated! Thank you Dr. Ferrari!     — Kristymegale

Just had the surgery done on November 30, 2009. I am about 14lbs down. Stitch work on my belly was great. I am feeling good despite not being able to eat. Will hopefully see more results soon. I will keep you updated...     — CaliforniaMomof2

Photo of Abear   Happy Monday everyone! I am a new kid on the block. I am 39 yr.s old, married with twin 7 year olds. I will have gastric bypass on November 20th with Dr. Ferrari. Today luly said for me to start preop dieting to loose some weight. I guess this has just finalized the reality of what I have decided to do and I am all of a sudden-very nervous. I still think it is the right decision but the nervousness has kicked in. I would like any and all pro-op and post op advice any of you would like to share-it would be very appreciated. No need to sugar-coat, I like it as is! :) Thanks, Abear     — Abear

Photo of idgett   I am a newbe. Would and have my first appointment with DR. Ferrari next Friday 6/27/08 Can anyone tell me about the practice? I am trying to get away from the cattle call like system of the advertised surgical weight loss centers, and get individual care. Am I at the right place with DR. Ferrari?     — idgett
