My family was passing away one by one and my brother made the decision to change our lives. The sleeve to me was the right choice was because it was a permanent decision. It’s not something that I could come back and get adjusted or anything like that, and this best suited my activity life.

Dr. Ganta’s staff was excellent before surgery. For the pre-op and all his staff was fantastic and they were very knowledgeable and answered all of the questions that I had about what was going to happen before, during and after surgery. He has the knowledge and the expertise in this field that really made me feel really comfortable about coming to the office and having the procedure done.

He has the support staff in the office that helps get you through the whole process. I did look at other surgeons and other reviews online and Dr. Ganta has some of the best reviews from prior patients and the support groups. He is mentioned many times as being a great surgeon and being very helpful in the whole process from the beginning to end. Even now, three years out, he’s still very supportive.

Use the surgery – no matter what surgery – as a tool. It is not a fix-all; it is not a next day magic potion where you’re skinny one day. It’s not about the size that you wear but the number on that scale is about your well-being and your health.
