Hi All,

New to the form, glad to have such a great place for info.

Have an appointment with this Doctor in hopes of having sleeve surgery.

Compared to other doctors not much about her on Google. Would love to hear from anyone who has had the surgery with her. Thanks

I had the lapband with her at the time 15 years ago

.It was my decision to go with the band .She performs all WLS procedures.I just had a revision to RNY in December 2015 but with a new surgeon.

Very competent Doctor

She isn't my surgeon, but I know and have known a number of people who had lapband done by her. They all have positive things to say. I was impressed by her when I attended an NYU info seminar at which she was the surgeon-of-the-seminar. The fact that I ended up having surgery at Columbia had nothing to do with her. She still has affiliation with NYU, but I'm don't know its nature.

@, yes, indeed. The next clothing exchange just happens to be next Monday,, the 11th. Here's a link to the post in BP. If you're free, by all means join in. (Dr. Kurian's office on Madison is among those I send notices to.)

I dropped by here again by chance. If you have any questions about the exchange, either post them at the above or here in your own topic. If you choose the latter, click the little, blue "mention" under my i.d. info so that I'll know.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
