Fantastic experiences with Dr. Srikanth and the Center for weight loss surgery



Recommended Posts

About 10 years ago I attended Dr. Srikanth's informational meetings but was apprehensive about taking such a drastic step in getting my weight under control. One month ago Dr. Srikanth performed the sleve and duodenal switch on myself. My only regret is not doing it 10 years ago. I am a 52 year old male, 6'6 in height and was 430 pounds at my heaviest point. I had type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. At this point, two months into my journey, I have lost 75 pounds, my blood surgars are near normal and my life expectancy has changed significantly. Dr. Srikanth performed the sleve on my wife and she is down 25 pounds since she started. We selected Dr. Srikanth due to his experience and program which doesn't stop after the surgery. Post op he and his team meet with you to make sure you are getting all of the nutrition your body needs and his patients meet once a month to share whats been working for them and what's not. If you have done all of the diets and still are struggling with health conditions due to obesity, I would highly recommend Dr. Srikanth and his team at the center for weight loss surgery in the Pacific Northwest.

What made you choose Dr. Srikanth as opposed to the other St. Francis doctors. I'm looking at just the sleeve and debating between Dr. Houseworth and Dr. Srikanth .

Congrats on your progress!

Good morning Jen, I selected Dr. Srikanth because of his years of experience. He has performed over 4000 bariatric surgeries. I also asked to get referrals from him. Spoke with two individuals about my same age who has the same procedure and received glowing reviews. In addition he has great follow up. Within a few days of surgery he has you go in for an upper gi o verify everything is working as it should. He or his assistant availble 24 x 7 if your having problems. He has a two week follow up appointment then monthly. In addition his patients meet monthly to share with each other. I didn't do any research on Dr. Houseworth. My wife Sandy has had the sleve procedure done and is having a slower recovery than I, but we are all different. I wish you the best and recommend if you have the procedure to clear your schedule for 4 to 5 weeks as it takes some time to regain your energy and stamina. Jim

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
