Hands down the best care! All the nurses, staff and doctors were so caring and thorough. Preparing for a surgery can be very stressful and cause anxiety, but they put my mind at ease and made me feel very comfortable.

Wonderful experience with a wonderful team
When I first embarked on this journey, I was a little apprehensive. The struggle between finding a dedicated team of doctors and nurses and navigating the cost associated with having bariatric surgery can be overwhelming. I was going to have this procedure done in Tijuana but my family and friends persuaded me to stay local for good reasoning. I work for a company that offers surgeryplus which made this process even easier. No upfront fees or cost and just paying for the pre-op meals made this the best decision I could have made. The staff was wonderful from the front desk clerks, medical assistants, nurses, dietitian, NPs, and doctors. I’m happy to recommend Journeylite to whomever is interested in starting their own weightloss journey.
All I Wanted and Needed
The team at Journeylite has been amazing. I have never had to wait for an appointment. The process was efficient, and my surgery went great. I was nervous about surgery being outpatient, but I am so glad it was. I went home and relaxed comfortably in my own space. The staff gave very detailed directions to my husband and even gave extra tips for making the first couple days better. Follow ups are required for a year which I love! Highly recommend!
Excellent
This team of staff members from clerical to physician are excellent in giving personal, clinical and professional care. They introduced themselves, explained their part in my care and exactly what they were to going to do. They showed empathy but were persistent with their clinical care.
Through the years with different surgeries I would say this has been the best surgical team I have experienced.
Great experience with my gastric sleeve.
The team at journeylite is fantastic. Everyone is super friendly. My nurse Beth was great I couldn’t even feel my IV. I could also tell by my level of comfort immediately after surgery the Dr. Curry is an expert surgeon no excessive bruising or pain.
Wonderful Experience
I found myself having difficulty drinking water after my Gastric Bypass. I have painful reactions to artificial sweeteners, Stevia, Monk Fruit Blend, Fruit sugar etc.
I spoke with my dietitian, Em, about this and what a struggle I was having to stay hydrated. She searched high and low to find something for me to drink. Hint. She went above and beyond to help me and I’m so glad she did. I’ve gone from being at a loss to now on my way to full hydration.
It’s not only that she helped me find something to drink but my “ring” meeting with her are always so pleasant. She’s funny, easy to talk to, engaging and personable. I’m glad I have the opportunity to work with her.
All the folks at Journey Lite are really kinds, helpful and pleasant. My experience has been a good one.
I look forward to continuing working with everyone for the remainder of my weight loss journey.
Emily, ‘Em, is the best.
You all have a gem in Em. Not only is she very personable but she’s so easy to talk to. She’s always been a great resource for me and has even gone way out of her way to find items my sensitive digestive system can tolerate.
I really enjoy working with her and I know she’ll be there every step of the way.
A Dream Come True
I have started my journey for weight loss with JourneyLite in October 2022. I was uncertain as to whether I’d be brave enough to go through the actual surgery, so Dr. Augusta and I decided to start the plan with weight loss medicine while proceeding with the (potential) goal of surgery. I informed Dr. Augusta that a previous surgeon declined to proceed due to my several abdomen surgeries and related scar tissues – he assured me that he would try his best, but would interrupt if it was too complicated to make sure I didn’t have any major risks. Fast forward to April 2023 when I decided I wanted to go ahead, so the surgery was scheduled for August 2, 2023. Dr. Augusta performed the surgery acknowledging that it was challenging, but did not give up and made sure he was able to complete it successfully and with no issues. There aren’t many words to express how amazing this team has been throughout this whole process! From the office staff to the nurses both in the office and the surgery facility they all made me feel cared for, safe and it truly felt like family! I needed that because I was alone through it all due to the fact my family is overseas, but I never felt that way! I feel so blessed to have found them and would highly recommend them to anyone!! Thank you JourneyLite!! Love, Fran!
