"I had been planning weight loss surgery for a long, long time but every time I started there was something that made me uneasy so I didn't go through with it. Then my spouse (an OR nurse) said she found the right surgeon for me. Dr. Peterson and his staff were consummate professionals from day one. They answered all of my questions and did their best to set my mind at ease. The surgery itself went smoothly and the care afterwards was exceptional. Before, I could only walk 10 feet before taking a break, my diabetes was out of control, my life was simply just existing with no pleasure to it. After 145lbs loss, I am active again, I can walk for greater distances, my diabetes is under great control, I ride a bike, I live my life again. This surgery saved my life, and the support I still receive from Dr. Peterson and his staff is simply phenomenal. If I had to go through it again, I wouldn't change a thing."
