He's been performing bariatric surgery since the late 90s. He's done thousands and thousands. He developed the Mini sleeve and he does them daily. I trust him implicitly. I read the 1 review about alcohol abuse that you mentioned. I don't really believe that. If it did happen it was written 5 years ago if I remember correctly. He's fit, energetic, charismatic and bright eyed. (He's also eye candy... Lol!) I don't believe that review at all.

I had surgery August 16th. I didn't live local so I stayed in a hotel. I was released from the surgery center around 4 the afternoon of surgery. Stayed in a hotel that night. Did my leak test the following morning and my boyfriend drove me home.

I did have surgery with Dr McCarty and it was the best experience ever. Very little pain. Two tiny incisions I can see (would have been only one but they had to reposition so I have one extra that's less than a centimeter long. I took pain meds for 1 day post op and 2 nights. I went back to work in a week and a half but could have gone back sooner. I feel like my recovery was a non event. Dr McCarty is the nicest guy you could ever hope to work with. I'd do it again tomorrow. I'm down 86 pounds and still slowly losing despite some major life upheavals which would have way laid me in the past. I have my life back and am living a normal healthy life.

I'm not sure yet but I may try at least the trial membership to Gwuinee Bee, that clothes rental place. Regular price is too high. I could by 5-6 dresses a month at Ross for the $75 monthly fee. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App

Old thread but bumping back up. I just ordered my sample pack for 16.99 (included shipping.) The Bariatric Pal store seems pretty reasonable for the bulk Syntrax but the sample pack seems overpriced. I wanted to try them all out before I ordered 2 pound tubs.
