Who Was Your Gastric Sleeve Surgeon



Recommended Posts

My name is Kris and my surgeon was/is Dr Beth Schrope and the surgery was performed at Valley Hospital in Ridgewood NJ. Best, very concerned and attentative Surgeon in a facility that is sensetive to the patients. It's like checking into a hotel. Best care and consideration I'd ever had. I was there for 2 nights and just rested up for a few days then was off and running;. I actually gave her a hug today for saving my life. I'd do it all over again and will recommend her to anyone who needs suggestions. She's the best! I'm soooooo glad I found her!

I used the beautiful Dr. Maria Pompa Gonzalez at the LIMPA surgical centre in Tijuana. It is a bariatric centre of excellence. Truly an amazing medical experience. Beautiful facility, compassionate staff who spoke fluent English, and 11/10 care. I was very impressed!

I had my surgery August 30, 2011 in Sebastian, FL. Dr. Patrick Domkowski was my surgeon and I think he rocks!!! He saved my life, literally, with this surgery! I paid $12,500 for surgery and would do it ALL again in a heartbeat!

I had my sleeve with Dr. Gonzales in San Antonio, Texas at Foundation Medical Center. A friend had it there and she loved it. I love Dr. Gonzales! I heard he was the best gastric surgeon in Texas but I dont know if thats true! However he is very good!

My surgeon was Troy Lamar (Love that name!) from California Bariatric and General Surgery in Arcadia. The hospital was Arcadia Methodist.

I highly recommend Dr. Lamar and his staff. Dr. Lamar basically loves surgery and he's wonderful at it. The aftercare and support is great too. I'm going to a support group set up by his office tonight. It's 3x a week!

I'm a Fort Worthian scheduled with Dr. David Kim on February 28th also at Forest park Medical Center. This was music to my ears!! He was recommended by a friend of a friend and then I started seeing his commercials and billboards which made me a bit nervous. After meeting him though, I feel the same about his bedside manner (so far). I'm looking forward to following your journey!

I'm having surgery on the 16th by Dr. Kim. Don't know if I've seen you in the meetings, but Congrats! and I'll figure out how to follow your story through you adventure.

I'm in the Phoenix, AZ area, and my surgeon was Dr Daniel Fang of the Bridges Weightloss Center. My surgery was performed at St Luke's Medical Center, one of the Centers of Excellence in Phoenix, AZ. I can't say enough positive about the team at Bridges, or Dr Fang and his staff. They were caring, responsive, professional, and timely with all services and information. I would recommend Dr Daniel Fang with total and complete confidence.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
