"My first impression of Dr. Provost was that he looked very young. After seeing him a few times, I realised that he was very interested in helping me and he would go to any lengths to do so. I weighed 700 pounds before the surgery, and he was very concerned for my health and well being. His staff was very helpful too. I had never seen such a compassionate group in my life. I can't really say that there was anything about Dr. Provost that I didn't like. I got mad at him several times while I was still in the hospital after my surgery, but now that I look back on it, he was only doing what was best for me. If I had to rate him on a scale of 1 to 10...I would give him a 12. There was an after care program lined up for me, but I lived too far away to go to this all the time. Now I wish I had taken more advantage of it. He explained the risks of surgery very well. I was extremely scared, but I also knew that if I didn't have this done, I was going to die. Being 24 years old at the time and weighing near 700 pounds was a definite health risk. His surgical competence, and bedside manner were both AWSOME. If I had to do it all over again, I would do it in a heartbeat...and I would definitely want Dr. Provost as my surgeon."
