A lot of folk out here with plenty of experience.
I did wanted to drop by an Invitation.
It’s great to see other men out here.

Drop by the Men’s Forum
And check out what other men like you are going through.

Great bunch of guys with the mutual understanding

Hello from a fellow MMPC patient! I had Dr. K., but Dr. Foote did my endoscopy, and he was great!

Hey Wanda,

Its good to find out that there is another MMPC'er on th board
i am really glad that my grandma refered me to MMPC
it has been easy going there it seems like they are always
available to answer questions but sometimes it takes them a couple
of days to answer back....my grandma had her surgery done by dr foote
so that is why i chose to see him because she is doing so great
i hope you have had good experiences with MMPC
what kind of procedure did u have done when u went there???

i am going to have the switch done with a sleeve too
i guess its called an aborted procedure so my insurance will cover it
but anyway would love to hear back about your experiences with MMPC
take care

Ryan
