I did a lot of research after having tried multiple things to lose weight. There were things that worked BUT they didn't stick, I figured the only way I would be able to lose weight and keep it off in a healthy way I would have to find a Doc that would help retrain my brain.

After lots of research, I found Dr. S who is awesome, understood my frustrations with all the other weight loss programs out there. She helped me get on a customized plan for me, not some cookie-cutter plan other places do. A plan for my body and how my body treats weight loss. I'm down 50+ lbs as of today, healthier than ever before so I can be sure I'm around for my 10-month-old daughter.

There are lots of programs out there BUT when you choose Dr. S, she is going to be sure to teach you the skills you need and understanding how YOUR body individual body handles foods and weight loss so you not only lose weight but understand how to keep it off.

Dr. Surkunte is wonderful! I've been seeing her every second week or so for 6 months, the last couple through telemedicine because of the lockdown. She is compassionate, empathetic, doesn't pass judgment, and best of all, is extremely thorough, detailed, and open in her interactions with you. She takes her time to listen, believes in looking at you and your lifestyle holistically in trying to get to the root cause/causes of your problem, and then working with you to find solutions.

She works with your other doctors, proactively calls them to make sure they are aware of changes she is suggesting/making to your lifestyle and takes their opinion & advice on board. What is lovely is that she also celebrates your successes as enthusiastically as you do, and makes you feel that you truly do have a support system. You can't really go wrong with her.

One morning I woke up, looked in the mirror, and cried for a while and then told myself to pull it together, I didn't recognize my own reflection, I had gained so much weight which I never thought of and then came the turning point: I approached Dr. Surkunte to support me in my journey of weight loss.

Our journey started with making me understand what is this weight loss program all about. She explained to me what all should I change in my lifestyle, right from monitoring my daily routine, to giving me guidance on what all I should eat, my exercise routine she uses to take an update on each and every aspect in detail on a regular basis. I started working out more, eating healthy, being positive and became more confident. I never could even walk a mile and now have been doing marathons which is the most beautiful part of my journey. I lost 31 lbs of weight with amazing inch loss and it feels that "Nothing can beat the joy that comes after working hard and achieving your goal." Dr. Sukunte helps me to prove that proverb can really mean what they are meant for "Where there is a will there is a way!!"

Thanks to Dr. Surkunte who has been my constant source of motivation during this really hard journey. My transformation was not so easy, but it has surely been worth it all with all her help and support!
