"The day I found Dr. Eric Pinnar was the luckiest day of my life. As soon as I attended his seminar, I knew that I wanted to have wls. I was tired of being overweight and needed a solution. rnrnI had considered gastric bypass in the past, but I liked the way his office explained the adjustable gastric band. It seemed like the perfect option for me. I had tried and successfully lost weight in the past—but I never kept it off. I was tired of the roller coaster. “UNBUCKLE me and let me off this ride please!” July 25 of this year will be my 2 year anniversary, and I have lost 115 pounds. I am a solid size 10 and I feel fabulous. At goal weight I will be a size 8...can't wait!rnrnDr. Pinnar's aftercare was phenomenal. Whenever I had an issue with being too tight, they had me come into the office immediately. The office staff always welcomed me with a smile--and wanted to know where I had been if I hadn't visited them in a while.rnrnAND I never imagined that I would one day work for him. (I live in SE, DC--for crying out loud!) But it became a reality in November of 2007. It is worth the commute. As a part of his team, it brings tears to my eyes to think about how many lives we transform on a daily basis. rnrnHaven't you ever wanted something so bad it kept you up at night? Or maybe you yearned for it so deeply that you cried yourself to sleep each night? Maybe it was all you could think about. That was my life for as long as I can remember. I never thought I would be able to lose weight and keep it off, I am eternally grateful that I have found peace, resolution and satisfaction with my body. rnrnThank you Dr. Pinnar."
