"I started my journey in September of 2012 and selected Dr. Fitzer because of his stellar ratings. I had talked with him about lapband but decided after attending his seminar that I would have the gastric bypass. I am so glad I met him and had him as my surgeon. He is top notch in his knowledge and care. What I love most about him is his passion and belief in what he does. I read somewhere that he loves what he does because he loves to see people happy. I have been overweight most of my adult life and have struggled for 32 years trying to lose weight. I probably have been on every diet imagineable. When I met with Dr. Fitzer I came teary eyed and was at the end of my rope and had reached my heighest weight of 243 lbs. I felt hopeful after meeting with him that I could actually lose weight and this is not something I felt in a long time. I was successful in every aspect of my life, but losing weight had defeated me. I had my surgery on December 28, 20012 and 7 weeks out, I am down 36 lbs. Postop I was impressed with Dr. Fitzer's personal care. When I called the office with a question, he always returned my call and answered the question himself. I still have more weight to lose, but I am well on my way. I am forever grateful for Dr. Fitzer and his wonderful staff in helping me achieve my weight loss. "
