Hey all! Surg date 12/17/08 I am a fellow Kaiser Richmond patient. I am blessed to have Dr. Im he is a young motivated Doc who is very inspiring to me and has always encouraged me to do what I know will work for me. Dr. Baggs is Excellent I think he is the head surgeon for the bariatric department. I did have issues with my case manager everyone on staff in the bariatric dept was very suportive and concerned about my sucess except for her she was very RUDE and blunt. It's been long hall for me in this process. It actually took me 1 year thats entirely TOO LONG. I kept cheating loosing and then gaining all that I lost back how crazy is that. Not 2 mention my dad passed during this process so talk about greif and slight depression. Needless to say I MADE IT...I PRESSED THROUGH IT .. I am ready focused and excited about this new endevor in my life! Kaiser ROCKS!!
