hi from Memphis
Hi Joe,
Welcome to our message board. We are all very happy that you have a date for your surgery and that you have made a decision to become more healthy. I also am pre-op but have chosen Dr. McGrath-Weaver to do my surgery. Mainly because Dr. Alston doesn't do the lap procedure he only does the open one. I wish you all the luck in the world with your surgery.

HI,
I am from Memphis also and had my surgery March 18th by Dr. McGrath-Weaver. She and her staff are wonderful. Congratulations on getting a surgery date. I can't imagine waiting that long, but you will be very prepared. I researched everything for a year and a half and once I decided, it was pretty consuming. I am now down 39 lbs and feel so blessed to have this opportunity!
Good luck!
Debra
