Patient Testimonials

Lori Bandazian

I can hardly put into words how incredible I feel since having the surgery. The journey has been life changing in every sense. I’ve not only lost weight but I’ve gained energy and confidence. The transformation has been more than physical. It’s been emotional and empowering. Choosing this surgery with Dr. Bradshaw and her team was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. And I’m so grateful for the health and happiness is has brought to me.
Lauren Spindler

“Don’t let the fear of not being supported hold you back. The Body and Wellness team made me feel like a part of the family. I wasn’t just another number to them.“
Kassidy Drumgoole

“I feel like bariatric surgery has impacted my day-to-day life in a very positive way. I feel more energetic every day, and I'm able to do a lot of things that I wasn't able to do prior to surgery. I'm able to put my shoes on without any hassle, to run up and down stairs if I need to and I can pick up my kids. So surgery has really impacted my day-to-day life.“
Jesse Smith

“A non-scale victory is my belt. I’m having to make a new one because this one (in the picture) is too big.“
Haleigh Lotzer

"I wish I would have done this surgery sooner."
Brittany Haetchen

"I took a trip to Disney World, and the plane seatbelt went right on. Last time I came here in January, it was harder to get on the rides, but now it is just like, ‘click.’ I am enjoying not having to sit down every 10 minutes, and I walked 10 miles yesterday. I feel like I have a whole new chance at life and feel truly blessed every day since I've had surgery. I am so grateful for Hendrick Body and Wellness and the care I have received."
Angela Jordan-Whisenhunt

“JUST DO IT! I wish I did earlier. Ask all the questions and start working out before. It’s not easy and don’t let anyone tell you it is. Take your vitamins and love your new life!“
