There are 6 different surgeons at Southern Surgical' date=' so if you don't get along with one, try another. And they seem to each have priveliges at different hospitals, or you can go to their hospital in Slidell. Since it's a specialty hospital it wouldn't be a direct competitor of STPH like Lakeview is.

I saw Dr. Moore 7 years ago when I chickened out of the lap band, and see Dr. Redmann now because he's on my new insurance and Dr. Moore isn't.[/quote']

Dr Redmann did my lap band a few years ago and he just did my sleeve 5 weeks ago I love him he is soo sweet and has a great bedside manner dr French assisted and he was great at well. Their entire staff is wonderful.

Dr. Redmann sleeved me 2 weeks ago tomorrow. I was SO glad when I had my gallbladder issue, which lead me to him and glad I switched to him to do my WLS! Started out with Ochsner, wouldn't recommend them! He does have awesome bedside manner and is very sweet! They do have an awesome staff!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
