Due to severe GERD and a failed attempt to repair a hiatal hernia last year I found out today that I will be having another hernia repair surgery and the surgeon also recommended revision from sleeve to bypass. He was driving while he was telling me this so the call…

Hi! I had gastric sleeve in 2015 and lost about 100 lbs. I had some stuff go on in my life and unfortunately went back to my old ways. Over the course of so many years most of the weight has crept back on. I’m so disappointed in myself and…

Happy Monday everyone. Saturday was a total wash out and I was feeling tired and lazy from going in so early Thursday and Friday so I just did minimal stuff. Yesterday I did a bit more, but the darn wind was crazy outside which made it a bit cooler than…

I'm 44 yrs old and have been on disability since 2000 for my depression (and debated bipolar II). I have run the gammut of meds - to the point where the font almost requires a magnifier so I can keep it to one page. My therapist has spoken about how…

I don’t even know where to start. Writing this feels heavy, but maybe I need to put these words out there to stop carrying them all inside. Not long ago, I was proud of myself. I had lost weight. I was getting closer to my dream…

I am so thankful that I picked Dr. Ferzli to be my surgeon. He is brilliant, kind, and attentive. The support groups are wonderful. I love that I can call at any time and get answers to my questions.
Awful doesn't come close to describing Dr. Arnold and his staff. They will make you wait for months and then when you arrive, they won't tell you that you are not meeting with a licensed doctor but instead "student doctors". I had no clue the person treating me and scheduling…
