Time is getting closer

Just wanted to say hello and that time is really going fast until my surgery. October 10 is right around the corner and I am soooo anxious. Had my gall bladder test the other day everything looks good, so thats one relief. Go for my preop testing on the 3rd and then the 10th I will be on my way to the other side. Hope everyone is doing well. Take care!! Joann

Dear Joann: I just discovered this website and have called Christine to join the Gastric Bypass Clinic. My sister told me about Dr. Jiser, and I am looking forward to meeting him. I wish you all the best with your surgery and post-op recovery. My sister works with Dr. Jiser at Saint's Memorial, and she highly recommends him. I met with another bariatric surgeon at Brigham and Womens's this past Monday, and he performs the Rouen-Y surgery but not laproscopically. Having had a number of surgeries done this way, I know firsthand how relatively easy the recovery is and how quickly you get back to your normal activities. It is understandable that you are feeling anxious, and I will keep you in my prayers as your day approaches. Best of luck! Sincerely, Rita
