Is there anybody out there from Idaho? I am in the Boise area. Just looking to hear experiences!

Congratulations!!! You are awesome!

My profile says kimbeeintennessee, but I am from Rigby. I had my sleeve done while I was temporarily in Tennessee. Now I need to find a doctor for my follow ups here. I had my surgery in February of 2012. My one year is coming up.

Wow, I think there are some doctors in Idaho Falls that will see you. If not you can try St. Lukes Bariatics Surgery. Here is the sight. http://www.stlukesonline.org/boise/specialties_and_services/Bariatric_Surgery/?utm_source=stlukesonline&utm_medium=redirect&utm_campaign=shortcut%2Bbariatrics

My doctor is Dr. Korn he and his staff are great!

Thanks, Pinkeye. I haven't been on in a while, I think I need some interaction! I changed my profile a little since I am back home now. No longer kimbeeintennessee! Couldn't do it from my ipad. I have been totally stuck since the holidays, and I really need to get back on track. I was under 200 before Thanksgiving, but I crept up to 207. Dangit!

Hi Kim,

My name is Sherri and live in Idaho Falls. I just had my sleeve done on Oct. 8th. in Mexico. I'm not sure what to tell you.....there are no Dr.s here in the area that do the sleeve, very few have even heard of it, closest is SLC or Boise.

Just before I had my surgery I started seeing Dr. Shawn Spiers (an internist) here in Idaho Falls, and like him alot. I think any good general family practice Dr. could do your follow up, I just choose to go with an internist since I have a history of heart attck and diabetes.

If you have other questions just message me, it's nice to know I'm not the only one in the area :wub:

I am in Idaho also! Dr valentine is my doctor also! I just got approved today for the sleeve!

Hi I'm in Boise. Was sleeved on Jan 29 by Dr. Oakley. I highly recommended him. I have 6 other friends who have used him. I'm 36 lbs down and falling daily.

Hello All Idahoans!!

I live in Boise--and I was sleeved April 16, 2013. It's been just a little over two weeks and at my first weigh-in I've lost 19 lbs!!

I am looking for online, and local "Sleevers" for co-support and co-encouragement!

I look forward to hearing from you all!!
