I'm having surgery at New York Presbyterian 1/5/15 with Dr. Bagloo. She is so nice!! And the office workers too Josie and Ivy! They submitted my papers and got a approval a week later. So far I'm happy with my decision

Thank you :)

I had my surgery done on 09/02/14 at st. Lukes with Dr. Koshy. I also work in a different hospital and choose him. Know several people that had it done with him also. I highly recommend him. Since surgery lost 60 lbs.

Hey ohsonique by this time you should have had surgery, how are you feeling? Hope everything went well and speedy recovery????

The first three days were rough, was so nauseous and throwing up. Finally was able to drink broth n G2 just now. Feeling better today. Hopefully get to go home soon. Thanking for asking :)

Sorry so late, been going through a lot. My body is having a hard time adjusting to my sleeve :( Been in the hospital about 4 times after my surgery. Now have a feeding tube in my tummy. But You decide everything the type of surgery and the surgeon.

Ohsonique so sorry to hear that, whats going on? Why they had to put a feeding tube?

I had a blood infection before. I have a feeding tube now to get my nutrients because before I couldn't keep anything down. Kept throwing up. My body is just having a hard time adjusting back.
