Anyone in Phoenix or the valley?

I'm in the west valley...getting sleeved by Dr Kelly on Oct 6th!

The only reason I chose Dr. Fang was because a co-worker recommended him. The staff hasn't given me too many problems yet.

I am in the West Valley as well. Goodyear.

I had the VGS on June 19, 2012 with Dr. Ortiz, in Tijuana, Mex., at the Obesity Control Center. I cannot say enough good things

about my experience. My insurance would not cover and was self pay. Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Martinez, they were wonderful. Great bedside manner...spent alot of time talking with me before and after the surgery.

I just recently found this site. Maybe you all could give me tips on how to put my picture on here and put the little weight scale on here too. : )

I am not the best on the computer.

Thanks and looking forward to chatting.

I'm in the Litchfield park area. Congratulations on your surgery. I don't have any insurance (I'm a student and have a work study job), so Mexico just seemed a logical choice. How was your recovery? I leave tomorrow night and I'm on the verge of throwing up from nerves and excitement.

Hi, I'm in Tempe and am being sleeved by Dr. Podkameni on 10/1.

HI all.

I'm doing pretty good. No real issues to speak of. TOday I have a slight headache, but I think it;s sinuses. Surgery went very well. No pain from incisions. ALl pain from gass and air bubbles from drinking too much/too fast. Walked a lot, helps, but sipping is harder than it sounds. I was released before11 am Wednesday and saw DR P everyday. I had great care and have regrets.

Glad to hear you are home and well...Keep us informed of your progress

Good luck to all of you on your upcoming surgeries!

I cannot speak for everyone....but I am so thankful that I was able to do this. It is not always easy but so worth it! I would do it all over again and I still have 40+ pounds to lose.

I was very nervous and scared too.

Best advice: Follow every little thing your doctor says...pre-surgery and post-surgery!

Hello Everyone! I live in West Phoenix, and was sleeved on October 17th b Dr. Kevin Potter at St. Josephs Hospital. Everything went very well, and I have lost 18 lbs since I weighed myself the morning of surgery. He was amazing and made me feel very comfortable from day one.
