Thanks! I'm In AZ. I posted some more information about where I currently am in the process on the main board. Basically, I am having some complications with RNY after 13 years and I'd like to have a revision to DS but at the very least I need to be seen by a competent WLS doctor that can tell me what is going on even if he/she can't perform a revision.
Hi, Cristy. Welcome.
But let me tell you why the "competent DS surgeon" might not be your best solution. You might encounter one whose ONLY expertise is with the band or with the sleeve gastrectomy, in which case...like they say...if your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.
So, as a failed band patient, I opted to go to a surgeon who had experience with ALL of the options. There aren't many of those. Your closest is Ara Keshishian in Pasadena, CA.
GOOD LUCK.
Sue
