I was sleeved 4 years ago by Dr. Ariel Ortiz. Since then, I have had GERD. I have gone through several diets and tests to get rid of the pain, but only a high dosage of Omeprazole twice a day helps. I also have about 40-45 lbs to lose.

So I have been considering revision to the Bypass. Would love to hear from any of you who have gone through this major step:

• What were your reasons?
• What were your results like?
• Most importantly, who was your surgeon? And can you tell me about your experience?

I am currently in the process of deciding on a revision surgeon in Mexico. Looking into having surgery by December or so.

Thank you for reading and for anything you can share.

I'm a little curious why you wouldn't go back to Dr. Ortiz for your revision. Do you think he is in some way responsible for your current GERD situation or is he just too expensive? I know he's on the pricey side.
