Recommended Posts

HELP PLEASE!!!

I am researching doctors and I have 3 in mind.

Dr. Wellborn

Dr. Luttrell

DR. Gibbs

1. Who do you recommend and why? If none of these then who?

2. Did you check out any other doctors and why didnt you choose the others?

3. FINALLY I have been hearing a rumor that there is a doctor in Little Rock who is not allowed to pratice at a hospital anymore and has been praticing at a private facality. Has anyone heard of this and does anyone really know why?

This is my life I need to know!!!:)

yes it is your life!. I have had a procedure done by Dr. Wellborn many years ago. He was great and very professional. I went to his seminar as well as one other Dr on the list. One was in the hosp, and one in the private practice office. Both handled very professional...

Go to more than one,,,smell the air, let your heart guide you.

i was actually told about that rumor by a lady at my doctor's office. she said she new it for a fact, because she works in the field, but would not tell me the name of the doctor. she said he has to do the surgeries in a "surgery center" because he is not allowed to work at several hospitals in the area.

i found this out after a neighbor of a coworker died for no explained reason just a few months after is lap band.

Regrettably there is a surgeon from Little Rock that is still practicing Lap Band surgery that reportedly has lost privileges at multiple hospitals in Little Rock. I understand he has resorted to taking his patients out of Little Rock to a small hospital in a small town that has given him privileges.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
