Dr. Jawad performed Gastric Bypass on me in 2003. The surgery was easy, but the life change was drastic. Dr Jawad, was informative and direct about the surgery and how I had to make a life change. He performed the surgery but he told me I had to do the work. At 5'2" and 240lbs I was desperate. Dr Jawad was sincere in everything he said. . My surgery was successful. I am at 128lbs 19 years later. I was dedicated in my life change. I owe him my life. I am grateful for his help and support. Thank you so much to him and the staff.
