I'm actually trying to move to Mason or west Chester now.

You should I love it here. Just depends on the price range you are looking for, it's all possible. Do you have kids? Just asking because in west Chester it's a great school but if they play sports it's really expensive

I live in Beavercreek and I had my sleeve done by Dr. Siddiqui at MVH in October. He is very professional though not a lot of TLC. He did a very good job and the folks at MVH were fantastic. I have no regrets and have had a quick, uneventful recovery. I have my 6 week post-op appointment on this Tuesday.

Hi smh!!! I'm having mine done by Dr. Siddiqui at MVH as well! What do u mean not a lot of TLC??

Dr. Siddiqui is very straight forward and professional. No small talk or reassurance like my primary care dr. He is a very good surgeon.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
