Contacting Dr. Kelly's office



Recommended Posts

I've been emailing her some questions for my July 21st surgery and she's been very distracted in her reponses. For example, I'll ask 2-3 questions in the email and she'll answer only 1. I feel like a brat when I'm repeatedly emailing her the same question again but I really just need some info. Maybe something is going on in her personal life and she's a little distracted?

She doesn't do as well on email. I would call her and ask the questions outright and also ask for a consultation with Dr. Kelly by phone so he can answer any other specific medical type questions. I asked a lot of questions too. Feel free to pm me and see if I know the answers to any of your questions.

I know I have the same issue and I # my question's out the second time and that was Tuesday. I haven't heard back from her yet.

My main concern is did she get the deposit. :(

Hope things get a little easier the close I get to the date.

I do agree she does seem distracted and I am sure she is busy, but if no one answer either of the numbers we have. Who do we call?:blink:

I had the same problems with Trish....Through email--she wouldn't answer all my questions--if you can get her on the phone---she answers them.

Well it does make me feel better that it is not a new occurence. Also you had your surgery and everything went as planned right.

Me and the girl I was going to go with changed our minds....There was some concerns we had...And going straight through Trish wasn't the best choice for her. We thought going through Trish would be the best but she gave my girl the complete runaround when it came to getting her deposit back. She finally got it back with my help and then Trish took part of it even though she cancelled a month ahead of time.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
