I live in Covington, I had surgery on Sept 17 with dr charles procter at piedmont hospital Atlanta, it was a six month process as request of the insurance, I lost 16 the two weeks prior surgery, and 23 after three weeks for a total of 39 pounds in four weeks, still 77 more to go!

I live in Conyers and work in Covington. Awesome results!

I don't because Medicare paid for mine. But if you email his office they can tell you. They did everything for me. I did not talk to my ins once they did it all! They are great and Dr Turton is too! I had very little pain, no nausea, no drain. Here is their link http://wgbariatrics.com/about-us/meet-dr-turton Best of luck too you!

Well I used Peachtree Bariatrics for my surgery. Dr. Titus Duncan to be exact and let me say this, put in ur mind fat factory. Do not expect any proactively past your first couple of visits and post surgery if you call the answering service dont expect them to call you back at all. Lastly, I had surgery back in February and they not once called me for a follow up visit.

Beauty,

That is a shame about PB! I called just to ask some questions and I thought it was strange that the rep "was not in" and would call me later. I guess I just assumed anyone could tell me about price, etc. And, it took them a full week to call me back. Ridiculous!

Smh! Well check this out. If they tell you they are out again or they are on the phone, ask for the manager and I guarantee magically they will appear... I cant tell you how many times I had to do that. It just burns me up!

Listen, I have no doubt they are overworked but dont label them advocates if they wont advocate and get your arse off of tv if you dont have the manpower needed to sustain the business. At the end of the day they billed my insurance $50k just for the surgery! (And heck, I was in the surgery center for only 6 hours!)And although I know insurance reduces the amount they payout to the organization, I know they are making money hand over fist! Smh again!

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
