I had RNY in March with Dr Ehrlich and it has been a great experience. They prepared me so well, nothing so far has been a surprise. Almost everyone on his staff and in the hospital have had bariatric surgery and this makes it a very understanding environment. I was back in work in 2 weeks and have had 0 complications. If I had to do it all over again, the only thing I would change is that I would of had the surgery sooner. My health has improved tremendously. Every tool will be provided for you by this office, you just have to use them. Dr Ehrlich is a really nice guy on top of it. Dr Ehlich's program is established as a Center of Excellence. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.
And then, in my case, not being able to eat or drink anything all day the day of surgery (it was postponed until well into the evening).
Once I was home after surgery, I never really had a problem.
I'd say these days the main challenge is that I really can eat quite a lot, and it's very easy to graze. 6 months out, you will need to work harder to follow the rules, but you can, and they will still work.
Congrats on your upcoming surgery.. I switched to Dr. R's care a little over a year ago.. & he's thorough.. honest... & caring.. he's a straight shooter who wants everyone to succeed with the WLS.
While in the hospital & afterwards while home... he'll be in constant contact with you directly or the staff will. (I kept calling him my favorite stalker.. LOL) he geniunely cares about you...
He can be a little "hard core" in his approach... but again it's because he's passionate about the surgery, follow-up.. OH YES PROTEIN INTAKE...LOL... get ready!!
I believe if he hadn't taken over my care when I went to him I would have been on a slippery slope with my health... I'm in so much better shape now than 2 years ago & I have his skill & expertise to thank (along with God's guiding hands.)
Keep us posted!
Hugs,
