Hi-I finally made the decision to have surgery and chose Dr. Raftolopolus at St. Francis Hospital in Hartford. After doing tons of research, I decided on the vertical sleeve. My surgery is scheduled for June 1, and I just started my 2 weeks of liquid diet. Has anyone else out there had VSG? Has anyone had Dr. R? Looking for advice.
Thanks.

RNY on 10/13/09

I had RNY with Dr. R on 10/13/09, and gallbladder removal with him on 5/6/10.

I LOVE Dr. R!!!! As long as you are honest and upfront with him, he will give you the best care.

His office staff is the best!

Good Luck !
