I had surgery with Dr. Shillingord on June 1, 2020. I can’t say enough good things about the experience. I was self-pay and was able to get in between Covid shutdowns. He’s worth the wait. You will reap the rewards for the rest of your life. Waiting a little while is a drop in the bucket in the long run. Good luck!

Thanks for the inspiring words. I am working with a therapist/hypnotist already regarding how and why I eat. I’m on inhaled insulin with every meal and long acting insulin before bed. Also glucophage 2 times a day. I know this surgery would be a great tool for me.

I'm a diabetic for over twenty years with aBMI of just under 31. I'm having a hard time convincing my husband about the benifits of this surgery for this disease. I don't believe my insurance will pay for it but I feel it could save my life. My h1c is over 11. Advice on what to do?

I had bypass surgery with a BMI of 32. I have 40-50 pounds to lose. I chose bypass because I have diabetes and the bypass helps that greatly.. I had surgery a month and a half ago and have lost just over 20 pounds. I wanted a permanent fix to get diabetes under control. Diabetes is getting better. I also had acid reflux and the sleeve can make that worse.
