Does anyone have any experience with the Downtown Surgery Specialists, Doctor Raheb in particular, or with Saint Joseph Hospital when it comes to surgery and recovery?

I'm in Denver, too!! I'm going through a different surgeon and office, but I've been in Saint Joseph before, and they're pretty good!! I've heard a lot of good things, as well. I'm sorry I can't help you with the surgeon or his office, but the hospital is good.

Did you ever have your surgery? Did you choose that doctor or go with someone else?

I had Dr. Raheb for my surgery in May 2021. He was great and the follow up from the dietician for the past year was super helpful. St. Joes was nice too. They are very encouraging while there to get up and move. The sooner you can, the sooner you can discharge :)

I am actually going in today! I did end up going with Dr. Raheb. He made me feel very comfortable.

      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!!
