Now MY experience with Robert Brolin, a true god of WLS.
First Google hit on his name plus "curriculum vitae":
http://www.njbariatricspc.com/downloads/Dr. Brolin - Honors, Awards, & Publications.pdf
Did we notice that this is all OLLLLLLLD?

See the combover? That's how DATED and UNREALISTIC all the info is.
His practice? A mill, staffed by his offspring, their spouses and other kiss-asses.
You go in the door and get mugged by the big ass pics of THE DOC with.....whom? Other People In Suits. Who gives a shit?
Who is sitting in the waiting room? The day *I* went in there....paying $300 and organizing oxygen supply and commuting a hell of a long way each way for the privilege.....There were crying preops and crying postops and crying complications peeps....Like the way too skinny bitch who sat there clutching her freshly sliced gut and moaning and struggled to her feet to run, staggering, to the powder room, who emanated major fucking stench, but who manage to control herself (she thought) to tell me all aboutg how her Brolin RNY was lovely and she was an exception and had had a TINY adjustment...... And then she gagged and I grabbed her hand and yelled for a bag. Did staff respond? Nope. My then-housemate had a bag that she held out.
Dr. Brolin claimed on his website and his obesity help advertisement that he did DS. Otherwise I would never have wasted my time on his lying ass. I called his number. The gal answering the phone said HUH WHAT? We don't DO DS. I said fine good bye/
Then some lying asshole called me back and said yeah sure he does DS. Let's schedule you, come on up, gimme your creditit card info fo4 $300 payable in advance.
I was dumb enough to believe that shit. I gave my number. We went to his Mecca place, which is a strip mall that he bought for cheap and into which he implanted his lackeys and offsprig. We went in the door and from the outset, every bit of intelligence I possessed (but didn't believe, because I was fat and he could FIX ME) said THIS IS A SCAM.
First stop? MONEY. Didn't fill out the form online? That's okay, gimme the money. I didn't fill out the form because your form is RNY only and I will only get DS? Um, huh, what? DS? It's okay,go to the next station.
And so it went. Mill, mill, mill. Umpteenth stop in the mill was surgical resident, who endured the full brunt of my not inconsiderable wrath by that point, who was student and scientist enough to stop and interrupt his motherfucking cult speech to hear that I spoke above a third grade level and knew both APA and AMA citation and could argue my case for the undisputed superiorty of the DS for ME to get stopped in his goddamned mindless salesboy tracks...... And who had the GUTS to say to the WLS GOD FUCKING BROLIN in my full hearing, outside my tiny, overheated, supposedly SCARY exam room door, that I had done my research, understood my health picture, and convincingly argued my position.....only to get SHOT DOWN by the WLS GOD Brolin..... Oh I dare not say what I think of that cocksucking egomaniac motherfucker.
Robert Brolin will get my edited version AFTER he sends me $300 plus interest plus damages for how he fucked me over.
