I had my surgery done 8.21.12 with dr Aceves . I was not a spinal but some of my hospital mates had spinals and reported that they were sleeping before the spinal was put in! As a nurse and a former spinal recipient when I had my C Sections that is so so nice to be sleeping before the spinal is done! In my opinion , just another reason to choose Dr Aceves and his team! The experience with Dr Aceves and his entire team from beginning to now with doing follow ups has been EXCELLENT CARE!!

Moonrisen - How would you describe your recovery since you didn't have the spinal? I'm scheduled with Dr. Aceves on Oct. 13 and also haven't made up my mind about the spinal option. Thanks for any info!

I cannot say enough positive things about Dr Aceves and his entire team! The entire experience felt like going to a spa! Everyone from beginning to end ... From physician to housekeepers were incredibly kind and nice and attentive. I have lost over 30 lbs this first month post op & never felt so hopeful that FINALLY my struggle with weight has hope to be successful in keeping the weight off !

In my opinion Dr Aceves is a humble and genuinely kind man and skilled surgeon.

I have been an RN for 32 years and for me Dr Aceves has been such a blessing!

      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! 😞
