I had surgery with Dr Metz on March 21, 2011. My husband went with me to pre-op visits and agreed that he was a good doc that we were comfortable with. He was awesome about answering my husbands questions and concerns about the surgery. Also, he helped me choose what surgery to have by informing me of all of the pros and cons about weight loss surgery. His office staff is great! They are always friendly and courteous. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have weight loss surgery.

Can anyone explain what Dr. Metz's procedure is for fills? Does he use ultra sound, etc.?

Thanks!

Hey, long time no talk. How the heck are ya doing?? He (or rather his NP, Alison......who is absolutely wonderful) does not use ultrasound or anything. She is very good at doing fills. I NEVER had any problems with her, or the Dr for that matter.

It has been a looong time. How are you doing? I haven't been on here in ages. I see that you have been having trouble, I hope things are looking up. Me, not too bad, been a busy summer with one daughter in a nasty divorce, and two others getting married within 2 weeks of each other. I made it thru all three, now maybe it will settle down a bit. Since receiving my letter informing of Kirshenbaum's retirement, I thought I should see what is said about Dr. Metz. I have heard and read a lot of good things about him. So when they do a fill, do they do the trick of adding, drinking, and then either adding or removing more, all with one needle, I have heard that some Dr.'s will add a small amount and not have you drink anything. Anyway I go tomorrow for my last visit with Tom and will then be transferring to Dr. Metz.

I will keep better in touch with you....Thanks for the advice.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      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.
