How to display "My Surgeon"



Recommended Posts

I can't get my surgeon's name to show either. It is Dr Jennifer Perkins, Fort Bragg. Every time I try to type it in, it changes it to Jennifer Griffith. I delete that and it saves as nothing. I am having a problem with my story entry and my ticker. they all show under my profile but do not show elsewhere. I did set it for public. ideas?

I just joined today, wrote my surgeon's name in (Dr. Geoffrey Nadzam from New Haven CT) and wrote a review about him. My profile says my surgeon is "Catari" in Wisconsin.

This is obviously an issue for some of our members and would appreciate a little info in order to resolve this problem.

When you are trying to select your surgeon, what, exactly if you don't mind, are you doing?

Step by step please.

Are you completely typing the surgeons name?

Does your browser auto complete his name?

Do you click on his name once our system delivers it as a suggestion?

What type of device are you using (computer, smartphone, tablet etc.)

i am on a pc. when I start to type manually Jennifer it does pop up a list of autocomplete names. my surgeon is not in the list. there are other jennifers. when I manually type perkins it keeps changing it to one that is on the list, Jennifer griffins. it will save griffins but when I try to change back to perkins I get nothing or griffins.

I figured out your specific issue....

We never had Dr. Jennifer M. Perkins listed in our database to begin with.

I've added some very basic info about her to our database and you should be able to select her as your bariatric surgeon. PM me if you have her office or personal email address so I can provide her with info on how to complete her profile.

Please add my surgeon, Dr Ryan Heider. I'm using firefox 23.0.1. I also tried in Internet Explorer 10 and had the same results. Whenver I type anything into the surgeons field, I don't get any auto-complete entries. It's just like a text box. This applies no matter what first letter that I type.

Thanks for your report. We're still trying to get down to the bottom of this issue. We should have an update rolled out in a week or so. I've added Dr. Heider as your surgeon.

Same here please. I'm using a PC, when I start to type his name I too don't get the drop down. If you could help I'd appreciate it. My Doctor: Dr. Jeffrey Monash and here is his link: http://www.drmonash.com/ Thank you in advance.

Can you do me a favor please ? I'm trying to get down to the bottom of this issue.

Can you type in just the beginning of his last name (monash) and see if that works for you ?

My surgeon isn't on the drop down either although he does have a profile under surgeons.

Hello,

My doctor is Dr. John J. Gonzalez at the Texas Center For Medical And Surgical Weightloss, San Antonio, Texas. I've tried and tried to enter the information into the My Surgeon block and everytime I click save the infromation disappears and it doesn't display when I post.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
