If surgery has improved your life, then you know that telling others your personal story might improve their lives too. Pass on that good energy! The following quotes are from some people who did just that. Thank you for the appreciation!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Jason Richardson is extremely informative and professional. He made sure I completely understood everything from day 1 for my success to be permanent. His team has been easy to get my questions answered. My only regret is not doing this sooner!  I’m currently down 161 lbs since my first appointment with him"

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I was terrified to even make an appointment to talk about bariatric surgery for fear of being shamed or embarrassed by my weight issue. By the end of my very first appointment with Dr. Richardson,  I knew that not only had I made the right decision to pursue bariatric surgery, but I had found the best doctor to guide me through this journey.  Encouraging, supportive,  informative, and very personable.  He explained things clearly so I knew what to expect every step of the way.
