I went in to see dr A during the summer but right after my kids started school and cub scouts and girl scouts and life got crazy. But i wanted to comment on my visit.... First i love the doctor. When i gave my history with my lapband and explained how no one believed i was hungry only to find...

So I posted about a month ago out here about my crappy experience with both my original DS doctor, Dr. David Kim, and about my less than stellar consult with a new bariatric surgeon. This has been interesting. And I've had a lot of realizations along the way. First, personal responsibility...

Thanks. I thought is was the regular from what i saw and how i understood the surgery to work. Ive been very upset with the records as ive read them. They originally placed a 14cc band in me but assumed i had a 10cc because that's usually what women get. I did lose weight through the liqiud...

Yeah thats my problem. Had the ds back in 2012 and never went below 250. Which leaves me still morbidly obese. Im hoping that when i see the new surgeon he thinks going back in will give me a shot at losing more. I dont need to be skinny but i havent been below 200 since highschool.

He is not anyone i would use but i habe a friend that has started the process with him. I'm worried because when I met with him he got snippy with me when I told him dr. Kim didn't retire he was in trouble for fraud. He then defended Kim and my consult with him with quickly downhill. My friend...

Where do i get the operative report? From the hospital?

Im trying to get information to help me with planning for a revision to my DS. I was told by Dr kim that he did a bpd ds but that he left my common channel longer than usual so that i wouldnt have vitamin deficiencies and because he could always shorten it later if necessary. A friend of...
