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!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
