So stupid question, I know gastric sleeve is safer and that's there are risks and complications with everything (in general) but has there ever been reports of death during gastric sleeve surgery , being put to sleep and never waking up ?

A mini sleeve is the same as a gastric sleeve just the procedure is preformed different. I will only have two incisions instead of 5 and then part of my stomach that is cut out will be uncoiled and made into a 4ft long strip and pulled up thru my esophagus. Dr McCarty is the only surgeron in the world that does this procedure . He developed this surgery a few years ago . He is in Texas . So I will be flying down and flying home .

I won't have a hospital stay Bc I'm having a mini sleeve, it's the same as a gastric sleeve just the procedure is completed differently and is minimally invasive but i will b in recovery for 4 hours. Is there anything that anyone recommends taking with them even tho I will not be staying in the hospital ?

May 2nd here I'll be having the mini sleeve with Dr mccarty in Texas

Ok thanks I'll check the book out thanks for the info

Awesome thanks for the info. Where do I find these groups ?

How do I find them?

Huh?

Just curious has anyone in here tried to lose the weight on the keto diet first? And lost a lot and didn't have the surgery ?

Same weight loss as a gastric sleeve as well

A mini sleeve is the same as a gastric sleeve just minimally invasive . Only two incisions instead of 5 and they bring the part of your stomach that they cut out up through your esophagus

What are the must haves , I'm making a list for the store so I'm stocked up

What are the must haves for the liquid diet? My doc doesn't require the liquid diet or a diet at all Bc I'm going to be having the mini sleeve done. But I would like to still do the liquid diet for a week at least. Thanks

I am too , I have a 3 kids as well. Do you know how many sleeves he's done? I'm still waiting on my phone consult

I found on the Texas medical board website that he had his license taken away but was reinstated in 2016

Do you know how many mini sleeves he's done?

I also thought I sounded weird too , but I also found a review that says lost his license too. Ugg damn reviews

What I meant was I've seen bad reviews about Dr MCCarty. Such as abusing alcohol and drugs, just wondered if they were really true

I don't live local either , I live in Ohio. I've read some bad reviews on him which is making me second guess going to him , but I've read really good reviews too. When you talked to him did he give you any info such as how many surgeries he's preformed such as the mini sleeve?

When did you have the surgery? You didn't have to stay at the hospital did you?

Did you have the surgery with him ?

How was the experience, I've been looking into his procedure but I've found so bad reviews . How's the weightloss been ?

Has anyone ever been to the McCarty weightloss center and had the mini sleeve done ?
