Thanks. Does your mom live in Lafayette?

No we live in New Roads about 1hour away near baton rouge. I wanted to use Dr. Cunningham but my insurance only paid for one in New Orleans. My mom received much better care than I did.

I am in between Alexandria and Leesville, I am 5 months post op. I have been eating fish and shrimp since I was about a month post op. I have tried crawfish but they just didnt bother me I just didnt care for them like before surgery. My taste buds has really changed since surgey.

Alexandria in the house!! Dr Bledsoe is my guy and May 7th I have a date with him lol. I am so excited!! And I love me some LA seafood!!

I am also using Dr. Bledsoe! I really love his nurse Pam! She is so patient and kind.

Hey I'm from Colfax (30 mins north of Alexandria) and I just joined this website tonite. I'm scheduled to have my sleeve done on April 30, 2013. Dr. Bledsoe is my surgeon!. Had my psych eval today and passed. Looks like this will be a great support group! :)

No, I was supposed to but couldn't go that day. Hopefully going to the one he's giving April 13th. I always have people tell me I look familiar to them, lol. I had a dr. visit with him on March 18th?

Awesome guys...I too went to the March 9 seminar. I really want to utilize the seminar too. And how cool we will already "know" each other.

I meant to say I want to utilize the support group lol

Hi everyone. First time here. I am looking for a surgeon on the Northshore area. Covington, Mandeville or Slidell. Will go to New Orleans or Baton Rouge if I need to, but would prefer not to go that far. Any and all input appreciated. The surgeon I wanted to use is leaving his practice. Such a waste of talent. He's an awesome surgeon. Sooooo, that leaves me looking for a replacement. Would prefer someone with privileges at St. Tammany Parish Hospital. I'm so needing to do this for my health. This is a wonderful site!

I think he works out of lake view which I don't like that hospital

@shnyinside check out Southern Surgical Hospital in Slidell. Their website is www.whyweight.com They are on LindbergDr, it's the i10 service road. They have a group of doctors, like 6 of them, that all preform the surgery. Dr Moore did mine and she was fantastic. Their main office in in Mandeville in the Premier Building on the 190 service road near Lakeview hospital and they have a smaller office in Slidell near the surgical hospital. Everyone in the office was great and were accommodating. They do surgery at several hospitals in the area and I was able to choose and had it here in Slidell at southern surgical.
