Testimonial
In November 2001, I remember being so fed up with my weight that I just couldn't stand it anymore. Mentally I was so disgusted with myself; I couldn't believe that I had let my body get so out of control. Physically I could not even keep up with life; my body ached so badly, every joint and every bone hurt.

I did a search on the internet for obesity and came across ObesityHelp.com, that is when my life changed forever. When I did a search for surgeons in the Nashville area, one of the surgeons kept coming up with fantastic reviews, his name was Dr. John Husted. At the time I didn't even know that insurance companies where covering this type of surgery. When I dug deeper I found out that my insurance (Xantus) covered it! I really hoped that Dr. Husted would be my surgeon. When I contacted my PCP's office I was set up with a seminar date and a consultation date with a bariatric surgeon, to my surprise it was Dr. Husted!! I couldn't believe how everything was just falling into place, like it was meant to be.

I really feel like Dr. Husted, Jamie and Janet have been God sends for me - they truly are angels living here on earth. You can tell that they love what they do, they have compassion.

I remember last spring I bought petunias to plant in my garden, I couldn't even bend down to plant them, so they all ended up dying - this year I will have a beautiful flower garden!

Thank you Dr. Husted for giving me back a quality of life that I never thought I would have again.
