Mindy, When are you planning on having surgery done? I am scheduled the 20th of this month with Dr. Haucuz. Are you planning on having it done there also? Just wondering. Good luck to you.

to anyone considering DR HUACUZ, he is the best. I am so glad i went to him. his staff treats you right. the doc is a great surgeon. I just had my second fill. i am doing great. DR. ROMERO knows his nutrition . i am in the medical field and can tell you they are top shelf. i would know if they were second rate. here in the USA i work with top doctors. i would rather go to DR. HUACUZ anytime. i like the fact that they are so warm and kind. always go out of the way to see to your needs. cat

spnfly2,

I will be there on the 20th also in support of my friends. It will be nice to connect a face with the typed responses. I look forward to meeting you.

I am VERY happy with the care provided by Dr. Huacuz and his staff. I was banded on 11/3/05 and have lost 75# so far. I have had one fill (last month).

It means he has the best price at all. That sounds very good. An excellent doctor with an excellent price. Thank you very much.

His entire staff is excellent!!! I dont know what he could have offered that would have been worth paying 2000.00 more for. The surgery, hospital, hotel, aftercare, and staff were all awsome.

One last question, do you know how long is the turn around time? If i call them today and tell that i am in hurry, can they schedule the surgery in less than one month ?

Yes, you can give them 100.00 deposit and they can set the date that YOU WANT more than likely with in a week!!! It's that fast. I scheduled my surgery with in 15 days of paying my deposit of 100.00. one piece of advice have the surgery in the morning time. You have to go 24 hours with out eating or drinking any thing so I think it would be best to sleep most of that time.. :-)

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
