Introducing!!!! (drum roll please) Life Weigh Bariatrics

For those former WISH Center patients you again have a source for continued PO WLS care. Drs Jeff Rosen & Michael Iwanicki have their bariatric practice up and going. Here is their new web site - http://www.lifeweighbariatrics.com/index.html Please bear with them as they build their new web site and get the practice on a roll. They are back in the old WISH facility again on Finley Rd in Downers Grove. Barb MacTaggert, Barbie Bartolomei, Joey, the dietician (sorry I cannot 'member her name) and Gail Rosen will be heading up the office staff. Gail is Dr Rosen's wife and you can read about her on the web site under the tab of LWB Staff. Last night at support group we were given the office phone number and it is 1 630 261 9393. For anyone that may have a friend or loved one interested in a pre surgical seminar they are having one this coming Saturday. If this week end is not good for you there is a list of other dates that are coming up in the future for more seminars. Call the office if you have any questions. Chris Bennett

I am so happy! Did you guys get to the meeting Thursday? I was under the weather so we could not go. Jeannine

Jeannine, I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. I can relate yesterday and today I have been dealing with a cold. Just what I needed this close to when Dave is having his PS revision on Monday. Hopefully, I will feel a little better then. You missed a good one, we had a blast. Dr Jeff if a riot, he must entertain his family, friends and co-workers all the time. I have a guy that I work with that is just like him; in fact on Friday night a group of us were out and we did not stop laughing at what was coming out of his mouth. My jaw hurt Saturday from laughing so much. But, I digress - we had some snacks, drinks, had the gift exchange and played games. We met Gail Rosen, Jeff's wife who puts up with Jeff, I mean who will be heading up the office staff. What a sweet heart. It was a great time with all the other PO patients that were there. There was a large group; somewhere around 15-20 with staff. We all talked and shared experiences. Jeff said to put our thinking caps on for future support group topics. They have already launched their schedule for pre surgical seminars so you can tell your friends, family or others about that. The dates are on the web site. Well, I need to get my Sunday rolling as we have a 50th anniversary party today in Addison. Chris and Dave

Hey Girl! Missed you at the holiday party. Sorry you were feeling crummy. Hope your bouncing back. Christina

I am much better now (just in time for work tomorrow) and I thank you both for keeping me updated. I really missed going to the meeting and seeing you all. jeannine
