Shirley Waldum Psychologist Ph.D.

I really feel that Dr. Waldum has helped me have a so much better chance of succeeding. I had so much less anxiety pre sugery (or at least more briefly :-)) than the people I see on the message boards. She's low key, kind, and very well informed. She is also very firm and focusing. She pulled my husband into the process when it became clear that my family was going to have a hard time meeting my needs as a patient rather and prevented their continuing to try to lean on me as the solver of all problems (the kids), or just avoid the process because it was too scary for them (my husband). She gave the family their homework and they did it. I cannot imagine what this experience would have been like. I plan to see her until I have lost all weight and feel secure in my new body.
