Dr. Fitzgerald worked with me as I needed to decrease my BMI below 40. This was difficult related to decrease in mobility and increased pain. I had two injections since April and was able to increase exercise and manage calories to lose most of the weight for him to do the surgery. I felt like I was involved in my plan of care.
