"I FINALLY MET WITH DR.MARSHALL TODAY. I WAS VERY NERVOUS ABOUT IT AFTER READING OTHER PEOPLES COMMENTS ABOUT HIM.EVERYTHING THAT YOU ALL SAID IS TRUE.I FELT LIKE I WAS IN SCHOOL AGAIN,HE EXPLAINED SOME THINGS TO ME AND THEN 'THE QUESTIONS'.I THOUGHT THAT I WAS GOING TO BREAK OUT INTO A SWEAT OR SOMETHING BUT I GUESS I REALLY OVERREACTED. HE WAS JUST MAKING SURE THAT I WAS REALLY AWARE OF WHAT I WAS GETTING INTO. HE WAS STRAIGHT FORWARD AND TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT HE SAID THAT I WAS A CANDIDATE FOR THE SURGERY AND HE WILL GET A LETTER TO MY INSURANCE COMPANY.QUITE PROFESSIONAL I MUST SAY.I EVEN FOUND OUT THAT THEY HAVE RAISED THE BMI LIMIT AND I MAY BE ABLE TO HAVE LAP.
THE OFFICE STAFF WAS NICE,IT TOOK A WHILE FOR THEM TO FINALLY CALL ME BACK BUT THE WAITING ROOM WAS FULL.
MELINDA,I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH NICE THINGS ABOUT HER. SHE HAD ONLY SEEN ME ONE TIME IN HER LIFE AND THAT WAS AT A PACKED EDUCATION CLASS/SUPPORT GROUP AND SHE RECOGNIZED ME TODAY.THAT ALWAYS FEELS GOOD TO LEAVE A LASTING IMPRESSION ON SOMEBODY:)ANYWAY,SHE IS SOOOO SWEET AND I TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHE ANSWERED HER CALLING.SO MY OVERALL OPINION OF MY VISIT WAS GOOD, I REALLY FEEL CONFIDENT IN MY CHOICE AND MY PCP'S CHOICE."
