Heads up - New Series of British TV Documentary "Fat Doctors"

Several months ago I let everyone know about a great TV series I had found on Youtube called "Fat Doctor" about bariatric surgeon Shaw Somers. The show follows one or two new patients undergoing wls. It's a bit graphic but real and interesting.



There is at least another entire new season now on youtube and a show called "Fat Surgeons"


and for those of you who watched the earlier seasons you'll be happy to know that they follow up on earlier patients so you can get a real feel of how much weight they have lost.



I won't give anything away but there is one patient they follow up on and I literally had no idea who he was until they showed his before photos. The transformation was utterly breathtaking.



Anyway enjoy !!

Thank you - I shall certainly be looking this up!

I don't know whether you would be able access this - as it is on a British website - but this is the channel over here that is showing the series 'Fat Surgeons'.

This is the link to both series and all the episodes. Hopefully it'll work for you all. You may have to register to access.

Fingers crossed! :)

Me Shaw Somers did my surgery lovely man!

Yes he's lovely and we mostly seem to talk about music as I'm a singer in a band and he plays guitar. He instantly gives you confidence that you have done the right thing.

Yes, I started watching it before I saw your announcement.

For anyone who wanted a quick link with searching, go to: http://bit.ly/2vJ9uZf

This lists the series (almost) from beginning to end ... it's nearly in order on the FAT DOCTOR Youtube page.
