Patient Reviews
Feb 14, 2025
I had a bypass with Dr. Rasmussen a little over three years ago. I have had little to no complications and have been extremely successful in my weight loss journey. He is highly nonweldable and really prepared me for pre and post op. He gave me all the tools to my great success. I have been able to keep the weight off and live a healthier happier lifestyle.
