I've used Dr. Hahn for other surgical procedures and was more than pleased. I've had a consultation with him about RYN (which is all he did at that time) while he was still in practice in Orange, TX and found he and his staff to be helpful and knowledgeable. I've also been looking into the Bariatric Center at Christus Hospital in Beaumont. Please let me know if you've used someone else and how it went as I'm just now starting the process to be approved for Lap Band (i.e. 6 mth doctors visits, diet and

medication counseling and weight loss program). LOL Can you tell I have BCBS?

dr. hahn did my surgery in march of 2006 and i lost 100 lbs. he is a great dr! he is very kind and patient. he isn't arrogant at all and his staff is wonderful. he is willing to do anything for his patients and answer any questions. i went to dr. spiegel at first and i found him arrogant and i felt rushed. dr. hahn is the opposite. i love dr. hahn and his staff! they also did my mom and my aunt's gastric bypass about 8 years ago and they are doing great! i'd recommend dr. hahn to anyone in southeast texas!

Meg, I have used Dr. Hahn in the past for a cyst removal surgery and I liked him also, I had spoken with him in the past about gastric bypass (my husband just didn't like the procedure) and I'm seriously thinking of changing. I hate to since we have already spent the 1000.00 with the Bariatric Center but I'm withholding judgement until I see how well they receive my sign off from the other doctor. I see my PCP this monday to schedule my EKG and any test she feels are needed. After that I only have one more appointment for my 6 months and I'm good to go.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
