Greg Alford

We are excited to announce our August Patient of the Month Greg!

“I started battling my weight when I was in my early 30s, I tried every diet in the world Jennie Craig, weight watchers, you name it I tried it, every diet pill in the world. I started to investigate the various surgeries available and decided on the sleeve. I just happened to find Dr. McCarty on the Internet when I was doing research and was astounded that it didn’t require an overnight hospital stay like all the other gastric sleeves surgery do. I met with Dr. McCarty, he is extremely personable and has a great bedside manner and just is very matter of fact and explained everything in detail.

I went into surgery at 2 o’clock on a Tuesday and walked out at 8 o’clock Tuesday night!

Yes, no overnight hospital stays nothing! I had several friends that had the gastric sleeve done by other surgeons and all of them had to stay in the hospital a minimum of a day.

Within two weeks of the surgery, I was off all my medications the metformin for diabetes and my medication for high blood pressure.

As you can see from the pictures with the help of Dr. McCarty and Orange Theory Fitness, I have lost over 90 pounds and transformed my body.

What I have saved in prescription cost and food has more than paid for the surgery.

I’m still amazed after year with the weight loss and basically how easy it was. It’s no panacea, you still must watch what you eat. I can’t believe anybody would choose anybody besides Dr. McCarty if they’re having the gastric sleeve done, his mini sleeve works and is absolutely amazing!
