How likely are you to recommend Dr. Howard?
I cautiously approached my decision for a gastric sleeve procedure in 2019. It’s a serious decision. Dr. Howard guided me through every dimension of the procedure - Preparation, details about the procedure, recovery guidance, and expected lifestyle changes. He gave me personal education and a partnership on how the gastric procedure can be a success. I was 334lbs. I lost half my weight and now very steady at 170lbs. My weight came off quickly (12mo), but the caring advise on lifestyle changes helped me to maintain my desired weight. I have partnered with my doctor during my journey. Feeling excellent and full of energy. The advice and guidance has been excellent. Very direct, caring, and understandable.Many do the procedure, but don’t take the time to understand it and more importantly follow the advice of the doctors.
