Thank you! He's definitely who I want! I'm not going to risk it. I'm certain there are other wonderful surgeons, but I feel the most comfortable with Dr. Aceves.

It's $250/month for 17 months and the 18th month is approx $120-ish. There's no penalty to for paying it off early either.

It is in house financing. Nina will help you start the process. They do not run a credit check as it is in house.

Dr. Aceves might be a possibility if my insurance doesn't cover it ... He is only 3.5 hrs away from Phoenix :)

Does anyone know how Dr. Aceves schedules surgery? Is it far out?

I believe you can book anytime. You just ask Nina if he's available the day you want to fly in. :)

      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! 😞
