When people are feeling low about their weight, they need re-assurance and help changing their lifestyles, not blooming promises of quick fixes of surgery !!!!

Thank you for your email, all feedback is appreciated.
We do not believe nor imply that gastric banding is
'the' solution to overweight. A visit to our website
will show that Healthier Weight is a clinic that offers a
complete range of weight loss solutions, including
diet and nutritional products and services, non
surgical procedures and surgery. We never perform
surgery on overweight patients, only the obese
(those with a body mass index above 30). For these
patients, the gastric is generally a very effective
weight loss solution. Most patients we hear from
have tried multiple diets over many years with little or
no success and are looking for something more.
I will look again at the advertisement to ensure it
reflects accurately the message we are intending to
convey.
Thanks again for taking the trouble to write.
Best regards,
Martyn Berrett
Director
I love how people think surgery is a 'quick fix'!!!! Why don't you just pop over to the surgery forum and tell them that!
I'm glad that's not just me. I think showing those adverts on this forum is just cruel!Whenever im on theres always a bloody advert for Domios pizza! i so love pizza its not nice to have it staring at me lol
