I go to Real Results (True Results) in Atlanta, GA. Back in 2009, my surgeon was Dr. Christopher Hart. My experience has been great with them. They are very informative and they handle my insurance with ease. My only thing is that they are not aggressive with my fills , but that is not a bad thing. You body need to adjust with your fills slowly to avoid slippage.

Hi, I would like to know which Iron and Calcium supplements are the best to take immediately following surgery for Bypass patients? I know that B Vitamin supplements can befound in sublingual forms, and chewable Multivitamins are okay for our regular Vitamins but I had been wandering about the other two for a while.

What is also a good supplement to help prevent Hair loss after surgery?

Hi,

Yes. Dr. Duncan did my lap-band surgery 1 1/2 years ago. I've lost over 87 pounds now. I could go on and on about Real Results staff & Dr. Duncan but it's easier to say that they are simply amazing. They are with you every step of the way before AND after! Whatever you need they are there for you. I would highly recommend them. I've worked with a lot of doctors in my life and I've never met one who actually seemed to care about your weight loss success AND getting you healthy and off medications, but Dr. Duncan does.

All of his staff, at either office are always there to help. I've called or come in with the dumbest questions, problems and of course successes and they are always helpful and make me feel like I'm not just another patient. They really want you to succeed and will do everything possible to help you.

You aren't just another number with these people. I'm so glad I got my lap band. It not only changed my life but probably saved it.

Dr. Duncan and his staff have apparently done over 5,000 weight loss procedures. With all that practice he's got to be good at it. :D

Good luck.

Thanks for the response.

I just got my insurance approval and have an appointment tomorrow morning for medical clearance and to set my surgery date. Hoping to set date for the week of March 14th. I will say I have had a really good experience with Real Results so far. I have been working with them for a little over 6 months now thanks to my insurnace.

Congrats on your success! I am looking forward to a healthier and happier me!

I am with Real Results and have had nothing but a great experience. One snafu, but it was quickly rectified. My first visit on Jan 13 and my surgery date March 9. They made sure my insurance had everything and I was approved in less than 24 hours! They called me and told me before the insurance company. I have my pre op tomorrow with Dr. Duncan, so I will share more tomorrow.

Congrats on your date. I have pre-op with Dr. Duncan on the 9th and surgery on the 14th of March. I am still pinching myself to make sure I am not dreaming. This is really going to happen.

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
