090: Bariatric Self-Love with Dr. Dovec

We were so excited to sit down with the one and only Dr. Dovec to talk about all things bariatric self-love! We wanted to know Dr. Dovec’s definition of self-love and how she practices it in her own life because this woman is BUSY! She is the Medical Director of AdventHealth’s Weight Loss and Bariatric Surgical Centers in Central Florida, she performs hundreds of bariatric surgeries every year, and is raising three amazing children with her husband Aaron!

We also wanted to deep dive into how patients can show themselves love before and after their bariatric surgery. We asked

• What are the three most important things patients can do to prepare for their upcoming bariatric procedure?
• What do you most successful patients do during the pre-op process that really sets them up well for life after their surgery?
• What do you wish patients would stop doing or thinking as they prepare for surgery?
• What are your most successful patients doing after surgery to find their happy, healthy weight from the moment they wake up after their procedure to years post-op?
