John Oldham - Baptist Bariatric - Louisville



Recommended Posts

I can't say enough good things about my surgical experience with Baptist Bariatrics in Louisville. The process was simple, supportive, and my surgeon, John Oldham, is awesome. My recovery was extremely well managed and I felt so good that I even refused IV pain meds while in the hospital. He is extremely proactive in making sure that his patients are exposed to as little risk as possible. My labs have been great, and I haven't thrown up once. At almost two months post-op, I am already able to fulfill all my nutritional needs without Protein supplements. My weight loss has been slow, but I think that's probably good. My energy levels are comparable to pre-op.

Highly recommend!

Thanks for posting about your experience with Dr. Oldham. I'm just starting the process - attended the seminar last night. I'm excited, anxious and all of the other emotions! Turned in my paperwork and waiting for my phone call! :)

I was at that seminar! Did you get called for the all day intake appointment yet? I’m so happy to read all this positive stuff about Dr. Oldham. He seemed like he really cared.

Are there any support groups there? I had mine at Baptist Lexington and even though I’ve been really pleased, there are little to no support groups available. I’m closer to Lex but would consider driving to Louisville for one.

Yes, from what I remember from the info seminar there is a support group....from my notes it's the 3rd Thursday of every month.

      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!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
