Share review of Mr John Loy
I am a week 4 Pre-op gastric bypass patient. My op was performed by Mr Loy and his team at The RSH on 15th June 2016.
I met Mr Loy and the team last year, and he informed me that physically and mentally I was in a terrible condition. Suffering with depression, an enlarged heart, sleep apnea and now type 2 diabetes I was on a slippery downward spiral with a short life expectancy if my condition wasn't treated immediately.
In December last year at a massive 35st Mr Loy fitted me with a gastric balloon. The op was over before I knew it, which was great as it was my first time in hospital ever, I had an overnight stay and sent home the following morning. Briony and Hayley were with me throughout offering care and support if ever I needed it.
4 weeks ago I had the gastric bypass and happy to say, for me it was a doddle, no pain and no side effects. I am now at 27st and feeling much healthier and fitter, my diabetes has reversed and this op has so far added 20yrs to my life.
I can't thank Mr Loy and his team enough, this op has changed my life for the better, my family are happier because I'm now a changed man, I have my life back. My body and my health are changing for the better on a daily basis, I have a whole new life to look forward to, my wife gets a new man and my kids get their dad back. Sorry about the long essay but I really can't speak highly enough about Mr Loy and the team at the RSH.
