My results have been incredible. I weighed 180 pounds the day of surgery and now weigh 140 pounds (12 weeks pregnant)!! Total, I lost 48 pounds and the best part... I've been able to get pregnant! Everything was well organized and clean prior to and during surgery. I would (and have) recommended this doctor and procedure to others!
