Dr. Brian Lahmann at BMI Surgery - Silver Cross Hospital, New Lenox, Illinois (south suburb of Chicago).

It's a gorgeous, brand new hospital, and the staff couldn't be nicer. Dr. Lahmann and his partner Dr, Christopher Joyce have been doing bariatric surgery for over 10 years. They have the highest ratings.

I had Dr.Fass at Seton Medical Center in Austin Texas. He is very clear about what he will do, very personable, and easy on the eyes. :-) His staff is helpful and competent, his nurse Jenna has gone out of her way to help me multiple times.

I was sleeved May 20th at Lenox Hill Hospital by Dr. Edward Yatco and haven't had one complication. The only thing I HAVE been experiencing is Hair loss which is the norm anyway but otherwise he's a fabulous physician.

I cannot make enough positive comments about Alok Gandhi, D.O. from Rochester General Hospital in Rochester, New York. He is my surgeon and my bride's surgeon. He and his staff and the entire Rochester General team have been absolutely tremendous.

My surgeon is Dr. John Dietrick of Tampa Florida. He is great - does mostly gastric bypass surgeries. So this is his stock and trade. Great program with multiple yr follow up for all his patients. Nutritionist on staff which is included in the fee. He is also capable of fixing other issues he may find - for me a hiatial hernia that I had suffered reflux from for years - now NO REFLUX! Surgery was at Florida Hospital Tampa - trained staff, caring and compassionate. Great experience. Would recommend him to anyone. OH by the way, I am a nurse - we know how to vet out surgeons! We only go with the best! Highly recommend him.

      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!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
