I'M AT 301 NOW WHICH IS 55 POUNDS LOST. HE SAID I was doing great.

My surgeon was B. Dean McDaniel in Victoria, Texas. He was very matter of fact and to the point. He also was very sure of his work and up to date on all of the new techniques. His office staff was very friendly and helpful. They made me feel very comfortable right off. I would highly reccomend him and his staff. He does not emphasize aftercare too much. He sends you to a Psychiatrist and a nutritionist. Also, he makes sure that you go to some sort of support group before and after surgery. I think his surgical competence is a little better than his bedside manner. He is sort of matter of fact and too the point.
