OhSusannah 2 Posted April 4, 2015 I too had Dr. Hoffman at BGH. He is awesome as well as the whole bariatric team! I know the original posts were a couple years ago, but is anyone still keeping up on here? If so, how are you doing? I am glad to see folks from WNY and especially Dr. Hoffman's patients!

chilihot59 156 Posted April 4, 2015 Hi guys! I'm a patient of Dr. Hoffman. July will be 3 yrs post sleeve for me. I'm doing well!!! The struggle is real trying not to let old eating habits slip back. Those old habits can creep their little ugly heads back in if you don't stay alert. I turned 62 two weeks ago and I know, without a shadow of doubt, if I hadn't been sleeved I might not be here now. I never made it to my goal weight, but, I feel great!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had Dr. Joseph Caruana from Synergy and the surgery was at ECMC. Everything went much better than I had thought it would. Thanks for the advice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have a date yet, I have a final meeting with my nutritionist at the end of February, at which point she should clear me for surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
