Patient Reviews
Jun 09, 2024
Dr. Swain performed gastric bypass on me almost ten yrs ago, I have had a ton of learning curves was it easy no not even now. I went from 408 to 115 I had my hip surgery after I healed. My life was a whirlwind I got married moved onto a working ranch and farm. I loved it I never felt better then I started having ringing in my ears and eating was sporadic. I saw specialist after specialist. Finally I went to a poly a gal massage therapist. My Vegas nerve was shot. It has been a hard rd back know one seemed to know what to do for me. Thankfully I started seeing a therapist. It was actually an ENT who diagnosed me. To this day I do not regret my choice. I wish I had known more of the consequences of my choice. Only because I would have done a better job of making myself stay in the race to win and not having the adventure that was my road.
