Anyone use Dr. Lavin in South Louisiana?

He did my POSE and I'm converting either the 1st or 8th to sleeve with him. Just looking for those who have had their sleeve with him and did you have any complications? TIA!

There is someone on this site who did, I can't remember her name but I think she was happy with him. I had Dr. Dominguez in Covington, no complications at all but I didn't care for him really.

I was originally scheduled to see this doctor but Covington was so far away so I'm using Dr Bledsoe in Alexandria. He's great and he prays with you.

I have not used Dr. Lavin, but did consult with a number of his patients. From the information I have gathered he is great. I am using Dr. Treen from West Jeff.

Dr Lavin did the sleeve on a co-worker of mine. He speaks great things about him. I was referred to Dr Redmann who I've heard is really great and personable. I'll be meeting him Sept 18th!

for those who used dr lavin - were you required to do an EKG? at my first appointment they were a little light on that kind of information. i saw another dr in jackson, ms who gave more details on what was expected before surgery. thanks so much!

      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! 😞
