Lutfi Forward Reviews
First off the meeting with Dr. Lufti was amazing, he is such a great Dr and super easy going. Very knowledgeable. He knew exactly what I needed once he saw me. Very polite, not to mention his amazing staff that are 💯 percent with you on this health journey. I feel like he just welcomed me into his family and they’re all amazing. I knew one of his his staff from my childhood and she made me feel that much more comfortable and confident in Dr Lutfi. I cannot wait for my surgery but the process was so great leaving a great impression on me Thanks to you and your amazing staff
First, I want to say thank you to Dr. Lutfi and his staff for the wonderful hospitality that they have shown to me. They really helped me get my life back on track. Dr. Lutfi made my wife and I feel like family before I headed out to have my surgery. I can thank everyone enough. Anyone looking to have this surgery I would recommend you do and that you have Dr. Lutfi perform it, you won’t regret it!!!
A year ago (Aug 2023), I had the gastric sleeve and it has changed my life! Dr Lutfi and his team have been amazing…before the surgery we had several informational conversations to ensure I felt as comfortable as possible. The day of the surgery, Dr. Lufti came by to check on me and make sure I was good. Post surgery his team communicated with my wife while I was in recovery and checked in on me daily, then weekly, then monthly. When I was able to start eating solid again, Francesca, from the Drs office, spent multiple phones calls with me reviewing what I could eat, shouldn’t eat, or wait on eating. Francesca has been absolutely AMAZING post-surgery from food options, to encouragement, to helping me find delicious chewable vitamins (they taste like starbursts)….she has vastly helped me achieve my goals! The only negative was I thought my weight loss was done and bought new clothes, 3 weeks later my metabolism started up again and I lost another 30 pounds, so had to buy more smaller sized clothes! It’s been over a year and I’m down 100 pounds and keeping it off. I can eat regular food, just smaller portions and nothing with a lot of sugar! Best decision I’ve ever made for my health!
