Review Highlight: Andrea

After we perform a weight loss surgery, we are thrilled to hear positive reports back from our patients. It is exciting to see that you are happy and healthy. Today, we would like to highlight a patient who had a gastric bypass surgery back in 2005 and now, ten years later, she has maintained the weight that the surgery brought her down to!

Here is what Andrea had to say:

“I just wanted to say thanks to Dr. Fass for performing my gastric bypass surgery in August 2005. I have maintained my weight all these years. Within 10 months after my surgery, I went from 264 to 140. I did all my follow ups until I moved away a year later. Today, I maintain 135 to 145, and I know how to eat to both gain and lose. I have had endoscopies done due to stomach ulcers and my pouch is very small. My doctor even thought I recently had the surgery. Just wanted to thank you all!!!”

We hope every surgery we perform makes our patients this happy! Our goal with this blog is to both encourage those who have had weight loss surgery to continue in their journey of being fit and healthy, as well as answer questions for those who are contemplating getting weight loss surgery. If you have been encouraged in any way by hearing this response, we would love to talk to you!
