"Dr. Fullum is very personable. This weight loss education seminar goes into great detail about the history of obesity, how it happens, reasons by just diet and exercise may not work for extremely overweight people, the risks, his own statistics, and so on. It was great. The group was small so I felt like my questions were answered in a good enough detail. rnrnHis Office Manager Kelly called the next day to set up an appointment, so that's what we have so far. More later. rnrnUpdate: 4/9 - I have decided to switch surgeons and go with Dr.Kligman of UMMC. Dr. Fullum is an awesome doctor and surgeon. I would trust my life in his hands. But I have decided to transfer over to Dr. Kligman and the staff at UMMC. He seems like a firm but kind man. He holds high expectations for patients and is all about holding people accountable for their weightloss. It's a different style, but one I can work with. "
