Anyone use Dr Trace Curry in Cincinnati?

I was a patient of Dr. Curry when I had my lap band several years ago. When he removed my lap band, he offered to convert me to a gastric sleeve, but I declined at that time.

I chose Dr. Curry after I lost faith in my original surgeon. (The original surgeon misdiagnosed gall bladder problems as anxiety, causing me to suffer for nearly 6 months.) Dr. Curry had an excellent reputation and I drove almost 4 hours to see him because I trusted him to help me. I also liked that he was easily accessible. Back then, he was very active on another obesity/bariatric social forum like Bariatricpal and I really appreciated what he was doing for the obese community. Dr. Curry was easy to talk to and I felt he took his time with his patients to explain things. He always made me feel comfortable and confident about everything we did/did not do. If I hadn't moved to Texas, I might have gone back to him when I reached the point where I was ready for the sleeve.

One minor complaint and it's not Dr. Curry's fault. When he took out my lap band, his office "forgot" to get insurance approval before doing it. I had a lot of after the fact fighting with the insurance company to get it covered and avoid being taken to collections.

I switched to Dr. Curry’s office after I had my LapBand done in 2013. I am scheduled for a band to sleeve revision on the 28th if this Monday.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
