A Long and Challenging Journey
Charmaine’s journey with bariatric surgery has been long and challenging. After five previous attempts, including a gastric band, its removal, and two failed, abandoned band-to-bypass operations abroad, as well as one in the UK, she was left feeling slightly defeated. Each attempt brought its own set of complications and disappointments, leaving Charmaine uncertain about her future.
Seeking the Best Possible Care
Determined to make one more attempt, Charmaine decided to do her research and find the best possible care. That’s when she came across Healthier Weight. She picked up the phone and spoke to one of our patient call coordinators, sharing her difficult past experiences with bariatric surgery. After hearing Charmaine’s story, our coordinator recommended our medical director, Professor Rishi Singhal.
"I'm going to do what I'm told and make sure my life is what I want."
