Mr. Sharma is a top executive from the US IT Company Oracle. He was a Diabetic on 30+units of insulin a day. He opted to have a sleeve resection. In his case the results were really good and he got off insulin on discharge. Here is his account:
"A Belated Happy Birthday to you doctor. (I missed it by 3 days, I think)
I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the "Textbook Perfect" Sleeve surgery that you performed on me last month. Its been 3.5 weeks. I am losing weight gradually and my diabetes is so far under control without any drugs or Insulin!!! If you remember I was on 30 units of insulin daily. I have a new life and hope for the future.
I am especially impressed and grateful for the high quality of surgery that you performed. Healing was so quick... I was quite well by the 2nd day and the 3rd day I actually went shopping!! My energy levels have increased and I am looking forward to getting back to normal eating in a couple of weeks. I hope that my sugar levels remain low with normal eating as well and I don't have to get back on drugs or insulin.
Thanks again Doctor,
Vinod Sharma.
Oracle Singapore. "
