"My first impression? She is too young to be my surgeon!!! But she instantly put me at ease as we talked and I am thrilled to have her watching over me at this time in my life. She pulls no punches, and is great to work with. I am blessed. Her staff has been kind to me and I will meet her PA soon. So stay tuned. Dr. C works from Catholic Medical Center and their Obesity Treatment Program - all of whom are fabamondo! They even let me bring my baby Maya to my appointments. Maya is my Mini Longhair Daschund - and the staff seems to love her almost as much as I do! Dr. C, the staff at CMC Obesity TX and everyone I encountered was great. The classes at CMC were very helpful as a support and finding out about pre and post op issues. I wish they would do some support classes during the day for those of us who live a distance away. I feel that I have been gently guided thru this entire process by people who really care, and I can spot a phony a mile away! I wish that the person doing the IV had listened to me better because when it was all said and done I was stuck a total of 5 times, including one in my neck. Not fair!!!! Apparently I also enjoyed the medication just a bit too much, so I stayed an extra day. Getting back home was great, but sleeping on your back is no fun for a stomach sleeper, and I was not ready for that. But as I heal, back on my stomach I have gone. Overall, everyone I worked with to get to this point has been wonderful and I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who asked. "
