What I like about Mezt/Brown is that they include nutritionists and physcologists, also they have support goups every third Wednesday. The PA's do my fills. I am especially fond of Allison, this week she spent 1/2 hour talking to me about my hormone issues and always is happy and friendly. After going to my doctor yesterday, I learned that she was right on with figuring out what was wrong with me, without seeing the blood work that the doctor drew.

Most people are happy with who ever they pick, but you do want to know that you are important and that they give you the time and attention you need.

I was banded in Mexico by dr ortiz, the last thing they told me before going under was "This is a place of God and of healing!"

I would be happy to answer any questions that you have.

I had surgery with Dr. Tillquist last june and had a great experience with the surgery. I did experience frustration initially when I was trying to get insurance approval. It seemed to take a long time to get it submitted 7 weeks or so. I was denied and then decided to self pay. I submitted an appeal and my insurance is going to reimburse me so it all worked out.

Dr Tillquist is not the best! My almost killed my mom by putting hole in her bowel. He missed it four three days on the day he was sending her home I ask the nurse to call another Dr and he took one look at her and took her back into surgry. They saved her but she was in coma for 45 days. My mom lost over 100 lbs and said she would do it all agine. I am having lab band done in a few weeks Dr Brown him and support staff are great.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
