Wondering if you ladies could help me with an issue I am having. I have a referral to go see Dr. Simon, but I found my insurance also has Dr. Graber, anyone can shed some light as to how you chose your Dr? I will like to have a gastric bypass, oh and what about the hospitals do you know anything about them? I am new to the area, and newer to the whole experience and this going back and forth looking at healthgrades is making me chicken out, please help!!!!

I would def do a consult with each dr, see who u are more cozy with , see who is more qualified. And see who practices what hosps. Check out the hospitals online and see what people are saying about each of them. It's going to take some work on ur part.... But this can be done!! :) good luck to ya! Keep us posted.

Dr Graber through st joes is one of the best in the state. The st joes team in the office and in the hospital was wonderful! Great aftercare too!

Dr Graber did my wife's surgery and mine. He is amazing as well as the staff he works with. The bariatric floor is also quite cozy and all private rooms. Def choose dr graber.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.

        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.
