Tonic Weight Loss Surgery 2022-11-15 Person 5 5 0

I had been pondering and researching having surgery for some time. After deciding on remaining in the UK for Gastric sleeve surgery I enquired with tonic. Jade contacted me and from the first contact was amazing, quick and timely responses nothing was too much trouble, I then had an initial call Mr Awad who was knowledgeable, precise and straight to the point but caring with it. I had all this information and knew I would be in great hands so booked the surgery for 5 weeks time at Burcott Hall. Pre op was fantastic and concise with thorough testing that took place, I had telephone calls with the dietician and psychotherapist too all absolutely fantastic. Surgery day- from seeing Mr Awad, anesthetist to be taken to my private room was all relaxed and I felt great. The staff on the ward- the nursing staff were like angels, the care and compassion they gave to me to ease my anxieties and then post surgery to make me as comfortable as possible was second to none. I'll never forget the way they made me feel Post surgery- the aftercare team checked in regularly, Debbie my allocated nurse was on hand daily with calls and I was able to contact her when I needed. I'm now 11 weeks post surgery, I've had regular contact with the aftercare team who have even amazing. Harry the PT who has helped with getting me physically active, being part of the online forum is also a great benefit but my heart belongs to Mr Awad and his team who performed the op and gave me my life back. 3 stone 2lb lost forever, more energy and zest for life. My only regret is that I didn't do it years ago I'll be eternally grateful and have 3 friends that have booked or had surgery since on my recommendation and are equally happy.
