Surgeon Testimonial

Eric S. Schlesinger, M.D., F.A.C.S
I would rate Dr. Schlesinger a 9. He was very informative. There was nothing I did not like about him. He talks alot about after care program. He went over the risk over and over again. I think surgical competence is great but the bedside manner must be great because we will be working as a team together and if we do not click I would seek another doctor. The more we click and understand our population of patients will make have a great out come to WLS Revsions. Future patients should know he is the best doctor in Arizona. He explained all the differnt procedures that he does and if you don't understand he will explain it in another way till you understand him. I am so lucky to have found him and thanks to everyone who said he was the best in the WEST!!!! We will have to see what I say about him after surgery... I had to wait a while to see him because I had so many records to be copied and they he had to review them. He acutally spent time with me compared to other WLS doctors who spend 5 mins with me. Mikki in office was very sweet to me. Jenn is also very nice and she know's what we go thru to get appoval from insurance companies.

Merry Christmas to Everyone !!
on December 25, 2008 7:44 am
The one thing that I am so thankful this year is that I have met wonderful people on this site. You know who you are. You guys give me wonderful support and are there for me when my family is not. A special thank you to Jeanna U, Jen B, Deanne K and Scott P for being very good friends to me and you still love me when I screw up big time and put my foot in my mouth. I am so happy that I weigh 252 lbs today and I can't even remember when I weighted that. I think maybe when I was maybe 23 or 24 years old. My New Years resolution for me is to try to more positive and not negative all the time and be more caring to others in need. Happy New Year to all !!!!!

I have not posted in a long time

I can't sleep again but I thought I would update everyone. I had my revision on July 2, 2008. I have lost a total of 90 lbs and I will be 6 months post op in January 2009. I had a ERNY done and have a common channel of 65 cm. I had my original RNY in 1997 and I found out when I had my revision done no intestinal was ever bypassed. I just got a stomach stapling. That was a expensive $25,000 I paid for and no intestinal bypass. I have met alot of very supportive people on this site and thru my support groups that I go to. I am now a Obesity Support Group Leader because I love to help other people. I had a major WOW moment today. I went out to breakfast today and I fit into the bar counter stool at Mimi's Cafe. My stomach did not even touch the counter. I was in such shock. I can now fit at a bar counter !!! I can now walk the whole length of Fry's without using the electric cart to drive around in the store. I still will need my rt knee replaced but trying to post pone that as long as I can. Well I think that is enough for me to post for now. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year...
