"Since my surgery I have lost more than 68 pounds." —Martha

I would like to take this moment to thank you and your staff. You changed my life forever and have given my family and I the greatest gift of all, a change to live a healthier life. It is a wonderful thing to be free of pain in my knees, back and to sleep a good restful sleep every night without using a CPAP Machine.

I feel so much better physically and mentally, now I can exercise without being out of breathe, and shop at regular stores. Before surgery I don’t believe I have had a full night’s rest in more than 5 years.

My blood pressure has improved and I can wear normal sized clothing. I had the Sleeve Gastrectomy 1 year ago. Since my surgery I have lost more than 68 pounds, I have no regrets at all.

Thank you Dr. Chen for making my life so much better.
