Mr Jenkinson performed a roux n y gastric bypass. This amazing minimally invasive surgery was never painful or even caused discomfort. In hospital 24 hours and the recovery was easy and supported by the care of the bariatric team. At 63 years old, I’m cautious in over estimating the benefits - but having lost 32 kilos in five months - I feel like I’m starting my life wearing a body I’m happy to be seen in. Mr Jenkinson is highly recommended. Mr CS, RNY bypass

"I underwent bariatric surgery with Mr. Jenkinson and his team after a relatively brief decision-making period. Despite initial apprehensions, the holistic care provided by the team was exceptional. - Kate Waller, the bariatric nutritionist, offered invaluable guidance on nutrition, significantly changing my understanding and ensuring long-term success. - Dr. Danielle Cottee-Lane, the psychologist, helped me explore the psychological aspects of my obesity, equipping me with strategies to maintain weight loss. - Natalie Cole, the Practice Manager, was instrumental in managing all practical aspects with remarkable patience and efficiency. - An extra special mention to Dr. Maan Hasan, the anaesthetist, whose exceptional care during a moment of post-surgery pain was deeply comforting.

Mr. Jenkinson himself was not only highly skilled in the surgical procedure itself, but also provided comprehensive education and empathetic support, which greatly boosted my confidence. Mr Jenkinson's two books, "Why We Eat (Too Much)" and "How to Eat (And Still Lose Weight) are both exceptional reading, and a great place to both educate yourself about obesity and inspire you to tackle it in your own life in a practical, applied way. Though there were challenges, the team's prompt and efficient response was commendable. Nine months post-surgery, I have achieved a huge BMI reduction (from 43 to 26) and have embarked on a healthier, happier lifestyle. I strongly recommend Mr. Jenkinson’s team to those considering bariatric surgery. Their expertise and care are unparalleled - please do consider getting in touch and making an appointment soon.

    Comments: I have always struggled with my weight and found the last couple of years (COVID, personal issues) pushed it to a whole new level. I'm 5ft 5-ish and was starting to sit regularly at 13st 10lbs and I'd lost all sense of myself, confidence and self-esteem.

    I'd done weight watchers in the past and various diets here and there. Totally trapped in the cycle of lose a bit, put a bit back on.

    I needed something to click and felt hopeless when I read a recommendation on an online forum for your book. I ordered a copy at the end of May and read it in about two days. It made total sense and was the click in my brain I needed. I implemented your recommendations immediately (eating almost zero processed food, making from scratch, avoiding wheat and seed oils, etc) and the weight has fallen off.

    I've lost about 2 stone through, what feels like, minimal effort. My eating habits have totally changed and I feel great! Just tried on an old pair of jeans, that haven't seen the light of day in about 6 years, and they fit comfortably.

    I just wanted to say a huge thank you that your book and ideas really work. I am so, so glad I read it.
