Jason: Sleeve Success

My impression was that Dr.Cywes was highly competent but was uncomfortable with selling or promoting himself. I think that he vastly undersells his talents or the results of his work. A very positive trait in a great doctor, but not necessarily for somebody who needs to convince nervous doubting surgery candidates that they're doing the[...]

Scott: LAP-BAND Success

Miserable. This word is used a lot these days but few people truly know the meaning of the word. Some folks might even say I didn’t have any reason to feel that way, because after all, I had a beautiful family, good job, decent place to lay my head at night, and everything else I[...]

Jackie S: LAP-BAND Success

The heaviest I have ever been was 305 pounds. I was in a horrific motor vehicle accident that caused me to be immobile for 7 _ months and all I did was eat and eat. After seeing Dr. Cywes at Jacksonville Weight Loss, I knew that the Lap-Band® was for me.
