Hi Everyone!

I'm half way through my required classes at Kaiser and received a phone call to meet the surgeon. For some reason, they are fast tracking me. Yikes! Not sure if I"m ready for this. Anyway, they have assigned me to Dr. Suh in Corona. Has anyone worked with him? If so, what is his pre-op diet like? I was hoping to choose a specific doctor in San Diego, for he (from what I've been told) is so realistic about your diet after the surgery.

Anyway, would love to know your experiences with Dr. Suh.

Thanks!

I can't speak to his pre-op diet, but my friend had him a few years ago and raves about him. Lots of people on here do, too. I finished my Options classes in March and I wanted to go to San Diego as well because I have family there, but they're booked up 4-6 months out. I got referred to a new place that they're contracting with, the Le Port Medical Group in Fountain Valley. Good luck with everything. I wish they had fast-tracked me!

Your pre op diet with Dr Suh is about 1 week long. He's very particular about what foods to eat afterwards. When you see him he will give you a blue folder with all your instructions.

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

      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! 😞
