Cincinnati Weight Loss Center=awesome!

I had originally had a consultation with Journeylite two weeks ago. I am at 370, and my goal is to lose 230 pounds. Granted, this is a major amount of weight to lose, but I have a strong drive and motivation to succeed. I am also a self pay patient who is very cheap, so the thought of spending 14,000 without getting results is beyond me! :thumbup: When I met with the surgeon at Journeylite, he asked me what my goal weight was. I told him 140. He scoffed and said, "It's not going to happen, babe." He was trying to talk me into bypass or the sleeve. He said the band would not get me below 265, and the sleeve or bypass would get me to 200. It is not shocking that these surgeries are quite a bit more expensive and do not require aftercare. He was arrogant, rude, and was obviously trying to sway my decision to make him more money. I was disgusted and left upset and frustrated.

I then stumbled across Cincinnati Weight Loss on the internet. I called them immediately, and I spoke with Kristin. I told her the story of what happened at Journeylite, and she was as horrified as I was. In less than 5 minutes, I had my consultation and surgery scheduled. I spoke with Diana, who is so friendly and awesome, and I had my pre-op diet instructions and anethesia consultation scheduled. They were efficent, accomodating, but more importantly kind! They seriously turned my day around. I went for my consultation today at Cincinnati Weight Loss Center, and I could not be happier. Dr. Watkins, Diana, Kristin, Cookie, and Tonya were the nicest people. Dr. Watkins never told me that this my weight loss is impossible. He is confident that this surgery is a good fit for me. Not only was he informative about the surgery, he was very personable and kind. I highly recommend Cincy Weight Loss Center to anyone considering this surgery. I feel so much more confident about my surgery because of the people that work at the center. I can not wait to begin on my journey when I have my surgery 2 weeks from today! Until then...this darn liquid diet! It will all be worth it in the end...right? :confused: If anyone wants to know any more information, please feel free to send me a message. I want to pass their good name to as many people as I can- I would hate to think that anyone had the same treatment as I did at Journeylite. Yay Cincy Weight Loss- you're awesome!!
