After being a patient for several years, I requested a referral/recommendation for bariatric surgery. I was well over 100 lbs overweight & he told me all I needed was to eat less & exercise more. He grudgingly wrote the referral & I was able to receive life-saving gastric bypass surgery several years ago. My cardiac problems are completely resolved & I no longer need to use this physician, thus saving me hundreds of dollars in medical & drug expenses.
