I am a former patient of Dr. Deol, and unfortunately for me, she moved to Chicago. I wanted to send her an email with a couple of questions that I have for her, but I havent been able to locate the new practice in Chicago. Does anyone know how to email Dr. Deol?

Did you try an internet search?

I live in the Chicago area, and am considering being banned. Do you know if she does bands on people with a low BMI (32)? I would prefer to find someone nearby and not have to go to Mexico.. the thought scares me.

Jacqueline,

I've tried an internet search with no luck. If you can find her in the Chicago area, I would absolutely tell you to make her your doctor. She is supposed to be starting with the "aigb" I'm just not sure if its opened yet. I'm not sure about the low BMI thing, but its worth looking into.

Anyone else know how to reach Dr. Deol? :confused2:

That is a good idea! I stumbled upon this thread in my attempt to find Dr. Deol's new practice too - I have been unsuccessful. I am going to give that email a shot, thanks for the suggestion!

I have had some contact w/Dr. Deol. The last I heard from her things were moving slow in Chicago and she really had no idea how long it would be before the new clinic was open. She said she was going to try to keep us posted on the progress through her old website. The address is Michigan Bariatrics Surgery Center of Excellence P.C Lap-Band I can't wait until she opens up. Not real comfortable w/the doc I have now.

I never received a response from her (not sure if she got my email or not). Has anyone heard any new updates about Dr. Deol's chicago practice? I'll be first in line if she ever opens her new clinic!

I recently heard that Dr. Deol is still working hard to get the new practice/clinic open in Chicago. The whole process has been very slow. No word on when she will start practicing again. I will be one of the first ones in line to see her when she opens up. In the meantime, I sure hope nothing goes wrong with my band between now and when she starts practicing again.

Thanks for the info! If you hear anything more, I would love to hear about it! :thumbup:

I see through a search that Dr. Deol was very busy during the elections supporting a candidate while in MI. I wonder if any one has heard if she is around MI again. I have had NO luck with the Dr. I am being (well not being) cared by. I am regretting the surgery and now think I should just have the band removed if I can"t get in touch with Dr. Deol. I am to the point that I am scared about my future with the band and not getting proper care. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜
