Thomas Sonnanstine M.D.

"In just 10 short days I will celebrate my anniversary. Dr. Tom did my surgery 9 years ago. He also did surgery on both my sisters and my niece. We have all kept our weight off. We are all healthy. We are all still married. We all have learned a new lifestyle. We all owe our new lives to Dr. Tom. I believe his passion for his work was the key to our success. He taught us well. I know the surgeries have changed so much since our surgeries. I just want people to know we did not gain it back or we did not exchange one addiction for another. Thank you so much Dr. Tom. If you ever have a reunion of all your old patients we would love to see you."

"I was very excited to meet Dr. Sonnastine. I first heard about him when he came to town and started practicing at St. Luke. He was very informative. Answered all my questions. He explained the risks and he also reassured me how he will be with me, several times a day over the course of my hospital stay. I also feel very confident he is going to take great care of me. He assured me he would honor my dignity during surgery. That is something that is very important to me. I was not referred to him I chose him based on the information I researched about him. I know I have made the right choice. I am now 11mths out. My surgery was 10/17/05. Dr. Sonnanstine has been wonderful. I started at 296 and today I weigh 163. The post op group sessions are monthly and very informative. I have had no complications and I have gotten answers to any questions right away. Since having my surgery my niece has used Dr. Sonnanstine and my 2 sisters are in the process of approval. His bedside manner was unlike anyother doctors that I have known. On the day of my surgery I know I saw him 4-5 times. He was straight forward in educating me on the risk involved, which I did my homework and I knew. My only regret was I had not found Dr. Sonnanstine sooner. "
