I have been and am a patient of both Dr. Seger and Dr. Jenny Seger. I started my journey in June 2021. I am coming up on 3 years since I made the decision to work with Dr. Seger and have a duodenal switch. I can honestly say that I may not be here today if it was not for the Seger | MD team and their dedication and care for my well-being and health. They are true heroes for me. My heaviest weight was 306 and my surgery weight was 286. I have lost down to 177 lbs., totaling a loss of 109 pounds since my surgery date.
The decision to do the surgery was not one that I made lightly. There were a lot of questions and a quite a bit of is this really necessary, and have I tried everything I could. The answer was yes and this was my best choice to have quality of life. Dr. Seger was right there answering questions, guiding me through the process and alleviating any concerns that I may have had. Not once did Dr. Seger make me feel like I was asking an irrelevant question, that my concerns were not warranted or that I was doing this for just an easy way out to lose weight.
Dr. Seger explained things to me about why I have fought this lifelong battle to lose weight that never seemed to truly work and why my body would do what it did. The first time I have ever felt validated in my weight loss battle. When we came to surgery day, I was completely at ease with the steps Dr. Seger was about to take to help me get healthy.
Once surgery was over and the weight loss journey began, Dr. Seger recommended the continuation of care program with Seger | MD and to continue working with Dr. Jenny Seger. If anyone has saved my sanity and helped me through rough patches, it is definitely Dr. Jenny. I was hesitant at first because I was unsure how Dr. Jenny could help when so many others in the medical profession had not offered any solutions. Boy was I wrong.
Dr. Jenny and the whole Seger | MD team has been a true blessing and has figured out so many issues that have been overlooked for years. Their knowledge and true compassion have kept me going on more than one occasion. Dr. Jenny is a firm believer in mindset as well as the physical work you put into becoming your new you. Dr. Jenny never makes you feel rushed at an appointment. She always has time for my questions. She goes into great detail so you understand what is going on, what all those labs mean and how the next steps should help change things for you. Dr. Jenny has even discovered things I never would have thought would hinder or help with weight loss. The Seger | MD team is knowledgeable about the human body and the chemistry behind how we work are truly inspiring.
This is a journey and not a race. Your journey is personal and not the same as someone else. Is the journey worth it? Absolutely yes! This is a life change and not a diet. I work at making the best choices every day and I have an amazing team backing me up all the way.
I have been taken better care of or treated more like family than I have at Seger | MD. I can honestly say I would not be where I am today, if it was not for the both of them working together to get me healthy. If you are on the fence, talk to them. If you have decided this is your path, I cannot recommend Dr. Seger more as a surgeon. His skill is some of the best I have seen. Dr. Jenny will be right there with you after it is over and long into your journey. The two of them make the best team to get you to the healthy you that you deserve to be. You couldn’t be in better hands than at Seger | MD.
