Looking to revise to a DS? X-Post

While the need for revisions from failed RNY, lap bands and VSGs to a DS is increasing, there are only a few highly skilled and experienced DS surgeons who can actually do the job. Most people mention Dr. John Rabkin and Dr. Ara Keshishian as leaders.

I just swung by Rabkin's website (my surgeon) recently to print out a lab order form and found a newer webinar on revising to a duodenal switch (DS). If you are thinking of a revision, you may want to watch this 53-minute piece. Hope this link works:

It goes through the various types of revisions and answers basic and not-so-basic questions. It's not exactly flashy, but I think it is full of helpful info for you as you consider this next big step on your journey.

Best of luck to you!
