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



Recommended Posts

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Thanks.

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

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

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
