I am almost 2 months out and I feel GREAT! I have been overweight my whole life, and lately I was gaining so much weight I was getting limited to everything! I am around 50 pounds down and I can tell a difference in my everyday life! It definitly isn't an easy road I took, but it is REWARDING! and that is all that matters! Dr. Dyer saved my life, and I am so thankful for him! I am looking forward to the months ahead!

Dr. David Dyer did my surgery 5 weeks ago and I would recommend him to anyone that is thinking about weight loss surgery, he is very thorough and very kind with a great bedside manner. I am so glad I had this done, I have already lost 30 lbs.

My comments are being posted approximatley six months after my surgery. I can truly say I have had a life changing experience. Even though I wanted the surgery I really got serious about it when my heart doctor looked at me and told me if I really wanted to live I would lose weight. I have lost approximately 75 lbs., the doctor has reduced and/or eliminated some of my medications, my blood pressure is under control, and I no longer use my C-Pap every night. Equally important I feel so much better about life and MYSELF. I am healthier and I am happy. I would recommend the surgery to anyone. I can not begin to thank Dr. Dyer and his staff enough for this life changing experience.

I LIVE IN CHATTANOOGA TN AND HAVE RESEARCHED ALL OF MY OPTIONS AS FAR AS SURGERY GOES. I HAVE BARRETTS ESOPHAGAS, HIGH BP SLEEP APNEA. AT 6'6" I WAS CARRYING 335LBS. I AM 55 YEARS OLD AND CAME TO THE REALIZATION THAT IF I DIDN'T DO SOMETHING MY FUTURE HEALTH WOULD GO FROM BAD TO WORSE. I HAD AN APPOINTMENT WITH DR HOUSTON AND I FIGURED THAT WHILE I WAS RELATIVELY HEALTHY THIS MAY BE THE BEST OPTION. AFTER GOING OVER MY CHART WITH DR HOUSTON HE RAISED HIS VOICE AND SAID: YOU'RE NOT HEALTHY!!!!! THAT REALLY SHOCKED ME AS I WAS UNDER THE ILLUSION THAT SINCE I HAD NEVER BEEN HOSPITALIZED THAT I WAS IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE. I REALLY APPRECIATED DR HOUSTON'S DIRECTNESS AND CANDOR AS IT CUT THROUGH MY BS DEFENSENSES AND GOT TO THE HEART OF THE MATTER. MY SURGERY WAS DECEMBER 29TH AND IT'S SIX WEEKS OUT AND I HAVE LOST 48LBS!!! I DEVELOPED A STRICTURE AND COULDN'T KEEP ANYTHING DOWN BUT AFTER A 15 MINUTE ENDOSCOPY THEY STRETCHED IT AND I'M FINE!!! I WAS SCARED BUT IT WAS NO BIG DEAL AT ALL. I EXPERIENCED NO PAIN FROM OPERATION AND REALLY HAVE RECOVERED WELL. MY ENERGY IS SLOWLY COMING BACK AND HAVE DONE EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAVE TOLD ME TO DO. DR HOUSTON IS AMAZING, KNOWS HIS STUFF, IS A CHRISTIAN, WITH A LOUSY SENSE OF HUMOR SO WHEN YOU MAKE HIM SMILE IT'S A BIG DEAL!!! ALL KIDDING ASIDE, HE IS BEYOND AWESOME AND TOOK REALLY GOOD CARE OF ME. THE ENTIRE STAFF WAS GREAT AND I'D RECOMMEND HIM AND HIS WONDERFUL STAFF TO ANYONE. THIS IS A BIG DEAL SURGERY THAT EFFECTS EVERYTHING SO DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!!!

I just can't believe how this surgery has changed my life. The best part is I am in my mid 40's and I have so much more energy to do things with my 10 and 12 yr old kids! We love rollercoasters!

Just wanted to give you all an update. It has been almost 7 months since my surgery. So far, I have lost a total of 138 pounds, and my BMI has dropped from 64 to 38.9! I am feeling better every day. I still have a long way to go to get to my goal weight, but when I look back from where I started, I can hardly believe how far I've come. Again, I can't say enough about Dr. Dyer and the whole staff. Yall are great!

Thanks to a great Doctor and his great team, I have a new lease on life!! Dr. David Dyer and his staff have been wonderful to me. Dr. Dyer made me feel very comfortable with my decision for surgery and has continued to be so helpful and compassionate . This is a new journey for me, as well as for my entire family. I cannot thank Dr. Dyer and his staff enough for making this journey easier. God watches over us at all times, and I know he continues to do so as I continue this journey to a new me.
