I am very impressed with my experience so far with dr. frantzdies and his staff. I am 10 days post op and have called with questions and always have gotten quick responses. I have had no complications and am actually feeling back to normal already. I will start adding new foods today to my diet and am very excited for that. I am very happy to have chosen dr frantzides for my wls and would highly recommend him to anyone considering it.
I am now 1yr post op and have lost 85lbs and feel great. My outlook is now so positive. I am much more active now and I get so many positive comlipment. I am off almost all of my medications and expect in the near future to not need any at all. The journey has been wonderful. Dr. Frantzides saved my life. I am so greatful to him and his staff. If you want the best care you owe it ti yourself to have the best..........................Dr. Frantzides.
I am 1 year po and I now weigh 139lbs. This past year has been an incredible journey. My health and quality of life have improved beyond words. The fears that I had pre-op about the restrictive diet I would be on for the rest of my life were unfounded. That's not to say that I'm not careful about what I eat. I have chosen not to eat a diet heavy in carbs or sweets because I wanted to make the most of my "tool." However, I can have 4-5 bites of most any dessert and have never had any type of physical reaction such as dumping. In addition, I can drink 4 glasses of wine in an evening and have absolutely no ill effect. I am careful and I always eat in moderation - but am here to tell you that you can eat anything in moderation and enjoying food is still possible. My overall health is excellent - I feel fantastic, more energy and more zest for life. I am thrilled with my decision to have this surgery. It has given me the life I have only dreamt about for the last 8-9 years. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Frantzides and his staff.
