I need a new doctor! I just moved down from Greeley to Denver (I25 and Evans) and want a awesome PCP that is supportive about bariatric surgery, so I figured this is the place to go ask for your references! Thanks guys

I see Dr Susan Santilli. She is in Northglenn. (I-25 and 120th) She shares an office with her husband, who is a chiropracter. She was very supportive over my having lap band, and when I was having issues she spent the whole afternoon on the phone calling my different surgeons to get things sorted out.

I have moved to Aurora, and still go see her. She is about 40 miles away...that's how much I like her!!!

My surgeon has left the state, so I have no support now (other than my great LBT friends, that is :biggrin: )

I know about the groups on every 4th Monday at Rose Medical Center ? Does anyone know of any others.

I am really in need of support about now....

I go to a support group on the first Tues. of the month at the Northglenn Library about 105th and Huron. It is put on by my surgeon, Dr. Snyder but anyone can go. It is run by Lana who works for him. It's bypass and band though. There's also one on the 4th Wed. of the month in Westminster for Lapband only. I know there are more around town, you might check: www.denverbariatrics.com and hopefully they are listed there. They just changed the website so I haven't figured my way around it yet. Hope that helps.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.
