Why Choose Dr Lockie

I knew as soon as I walked into Dr Lockie's practice it was the right fit for me.  

Shirley Lockie was amazing - the fact that I had to have quite a bit of testing done before I could get her okay showed me pretty quickly that I was in good hands. 

Caz's Weight Loss Journey

I have submited my profile in the hope it triggers others to have weight loss surgery done.

Behind my smile I was not happy. I was angry, upset and on a lot of mental health medication. I weighed about 95kgs. 

I went into this surgery with my eyes wide open - I made more than one appointment to investigate the possibility of having it done. 

Dr Lockie Was Honest And Explained Things Fully

Dr Lockie himself was very much invested in me from the start.  All the way along he has been honest & explained the surgery so I could understand what I was having done.  

After the surgery he phoned my husband to let him know it had been successful. 

I then also had the opportunity to work with the 2 x Michelle's - an amazing nutritionist & awesome psychologist - both making sure I was ready for the life changing surgery - and that I was armed with all of the tools that would make me successful.   

Their help didn't stop there. I have continued to work with them after the surgery. 

Great Results and Greatly Improved Health

Since the surgery all of my blood tests have shown amazing results.  All of the bad stuff has dropped - my cholesterol halved & a recent echo stress test also received a positive result.  

The cardiologist very much praised my weight loss as a contributor. It's funny I didn't see myself as having to lose as much as I did but as the weight dropped I could see it very clearly.  My eventual weight goal is around 65kg. 

My Confidence Returns

My weight started peeling off and with it came a layer of confidence that I had lost, a return to running (that I had also lost) as well as a reduction of my mental health drugs. 

6 months into my journey I took my dad on a cruise for a month and I came back almost 5kgs lighter. 

More Focused On Nutrition Less On Food

My world is not food focused as it once was. I have learned to love so much else and when I do eat I'm conscious of putting the right nutrients in so as not to waste my meals & calories.  

I can't thank Dr Lockie's team enough - as I said the fit was perfect for me.

I have no regrets whatsoever, I haven't skipped a beat and really should have done it sooner.  

Caz - a very satisfied client.
