Anyone use Dr. Boone or ALSA Medical Group in CA?



Recommended Posts

Hi. I'm using Dr. Boone in Fresno, CA. I know that a lot of people go to him. It would be nice to have support from others that are going to him as well or just to ALSA Medical Group. Thanks!

I have my consult on the 2nd but not with Dr. Boone. I was suppose to have surgery 4 years ago with Swartz and got sick and admitted to Heart hospital 1 week before surgery uncontrollably vomiting. Swartz cancelled the surgery and ultimately said I was no longer a candidate because I have Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. I lost 40lbs in 3 months but once it was diagnosed and treated I stopped.. kept it off... until I got sick and was put on prednisone for my lungs and here we are again.

Do you know what the surgery scheduling time frame is like currently? I’m miserable.

I am currently waiting for insurance approval hoping for surgery with Dr Boone in the next few weeks. How did your surgery go? Any tips for a newbie?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
