I had sleeve done January 3rd in Tijuana with Dr Ramos Kelly at Angeles. I can't say enough wonderful things about both doctor and hospital. Dr Kelly is confident, skilled, and highly respected at the hospital. Angeles hospital is extremely clean, efficiently run, and I have never been treated as kindly as I was by the nurses & faretakers at Angeles. You simply cannot go wrong with these choices.

My surgeon was Dr. Steve Webb in Jacksonville, Florida. Surgery was done at Memorial Hosptial Jacksonville, a bariatric center of excellence. I was approved for a one night post op stay. I would highly recommend Dr. Webb. Great bedside manner, very calm and reassuring.

My surgeon was Dr. Benjamin Schneider at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. He is amazing. Kind, great listener, better explainer (is that a word?), does hundreds of procedures a year. Oh, and he teaches them at Harvard Medical School. Gets no better. Love him to BITS!

Hello everyone, my name is Tammy. I was sleeved 2 March 2015 in the General Leonard Wood Army Community Hospital by Dr. Oscar Chan. Dr. Chan is straight forward and does not have a very good bedside manner and is on his own time, but he is an excellent surgeon. I was in the hospital 2 nights. The nursing staff was also on the lacking side pretty much in attentive. I also had to know my own dietary restrictions and call down to the kitchen to order my own meals. HW 239 SW 216 CW 216.

My surgery was done on March 11, 2015 by Dr. Carlos Juarez from California Bariatrics at Clovis Community Medical Center. Due to nausea I was kept an extra day until I could tolerate fluids by mouth. I feel almost no pain and gas pain was almost non-existent. The hospital kitchen has special diets that automatically send the appropriate selections based on individual dietary needs ordered by the surgeon. Clovis Community has a wonderful staff and private rooms. I felt at home and slept well there.

My surgeon is Dr Maleckas, had my surgery in Lithuania, at Nordbariatric clinic. I'd say overall it was a positive experience :)

      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... :(
