  1. LIQUID multi vitamins and meds

    sparty2k replied to sanaa.a's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I use Tespo (gettespo.com), which has a bariatric formula (powdered vitamins) that is added to Water and doesn't taste half bad. I look at it as a Keurig for Vitamins. Hope this helps.

  2. Dr. Julie Kilgore - Nicholson Clinic - Plano, TX

    sparty2k replied to Ms. Brightside's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Thank you so much for your review! I had a bad experience with Baylor Plano when I had my gallbladder removed a few years ago, so I will likely go with one of the other facilities use (hoping for Medical Center of Frisco, but I suppose it will depend on my insurance).That's cool, the other nice thing is that they offer a lot of choices as to which hospital to use! Sent from my SM-N910T using the BariatricPal App Thanks again! Thank you so much for your insight! I had looked into Drs. Hamn & Cribbins, as well. We're lucky in NTX with so many great options!I was sleeved 8/4 by Dr Cribbins, he did my mom on 9/4 and a good friend last week. Love him and his office!!! My mom and I did our research of docs before choosing him, including the Nicholson Clinic, Kim Bariatric and a few others. Drs Cribbins/Hamm came VERY highly recommended. Not to mention several of my patients saw them and had excellent experiences. Even my ortho said he wouldn't send him family to anytime but Cribbins/Hamm. They operate at either Plano Presbyterian or Baylor Frisco.Just my 2 cents. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Thank you! I checked out Nicholson clinic about a year ago and had a bad experience. Also checked out Dr. Kim before going with Dr. Hamn. Dr. Hamn was the best. Ended up having a wonderful experience (sleeved 11/3/16) with him as well as his staff.

  3. Incision scars

    sparty2k replied to macon_me's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    I had reconstructive plastic surgery on my face after surgery for skin cancer a couple years ago and my surgeon recommended "Scar Away". Worked really well as you can't see the scar on my face so I have been using it on my sleeve scars (sleeved 11/3/16) along with some Vitamin E.

  4. Vitamins

    sparty2k replied to OhHeyMarina's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I'm 14 days out & have been using Tespo. It's similar to a keurig but for Vitamins. They have a "bariatric formula" that are in pre packaged wells for each day of the month. It's been really easy so far. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
