Delmarva Surgeons and Programs



Recommended Posts

Hello! I have done a search of the boards but really did not find any helpful answers. I am in the beginning process of this journey and I am still trying to find a surgeon. Has anyone on the board used a surgeon on Delmarva or lower Delaware?

Just trying to get people's experiences with Naticoke, PRMC and AGH and their doctors and programs. I am also willing to go across the bay or up to Philly if need be.

TIA

Shellybelly31, I live in lower Sussex Co. I had my Gastric sleeve in Dec. 2016. I choose Christiana Weight Loss program in Wilmington. My surgeon was Dr Iragau. The program, services and surgeon were all excellent. I do not have anything but praise for all of them. Surgery was in Wilmington Hospital with great nursing care. The classes are held in Smyrna if you cccan work it into your schedule. I hope this helps you. Good luck

Thank you for your post! I will look at Christiana for sure, didn't even think of them. Smyrna isn't too far for me so that could work.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
