Adding A Surgeon To The Surgery Drop-Down On Profile.

There are many many MANY surgeons listed in the drop-down for the surgery information section on our profiles, but my surgeon isn't listed. He's done the sleeve surgery for a handful of us here on VST, although he is primarily known for his lap-band work. Is there any way to have him added? He's Dr. Ariel Ortiz with Obesity Control Center in Tijuana. Here's a link to his information on the OCC website.

  • Hello, Dr. Ortiz is indeed within our search directory, however - his last name was listed different. You should now be able to locate him as Dr. Ariel Ortiz :-) You can view his profile here.

We're very familiar with Dr. Ortiz. We're reaching out to surgeons this week with info on where they can go to update their profile on all our sites. They should get this info as well.

Can my surgeon be added? Mr Darrin Goodall-Wilson.

I'm from Australia. I've noticed a few Aussie doctors are listed.

Thanks.

Was trying to fill out my profile info and found Dr. jaime Ponce de leon in TJ MX is not listed.

There is a Guillermo Ponce de Leon, and a Jaime Ponce but these are not him

Thank you.

Hi there,

I've added dr. Ponce de leon (Jaime ;-) ). You should now be able to choose him as your surgeon. I will reach out to the surgeon to see if he is interested in updating his profile to be complete :-)

Thanks,

Ken

How do you get to the surgeon drop down list?

Thanks again Ken. I'm still not seeing him in the selections available. Does it take a while for the programming to update?

Should be there now :-)

Found him, thank you.

Can Dr. Jesús Ortiz be added? His full name is much longer, but patients will look for Dr. Jesús Ortiz: http://www.alejandrolopezmd.com/our-surgeons/staff/dr-jesus-elias-ortiz-gomez-curriculum-vitae/

Similarly, Dr. alejandro lopez is listed in the drop-down as Dr. Alejandro Lopez Ortega, which is confusing for most, so can this be changed? http://www.alejandrolopezmd.com/our-surgeons/dr-alejandro-lopez/

Thanks!
