Help, I need an angel! Surgery is on 11/28

I will be revising from rny to the DS with Dr. Wade Barker. I'm getting nervous!!!

Wishing you all the best, Kim. I have a couple of angelettes already this month but if it comes down to the wire and you don't get any local volunteers, just send me a PM.

 Another person who has not done their homework!  This surgeon is BAD NEWS!  Have you missed all the bad reports about this guy????  And, you are having a revsion with him?  Revisions are big, serious surgeries, and only a handful of surgeons can handle an RNY to DS conversion!  If I were in your shoes, I would RUN!  

In Texas, there is Daryl Stewart, and I believe he does RNY to DS revisions.  The other surgeons are Rabkin, in San Fran, Kershishian in Los Angeles, and Greenbaum in New Jersey.  

Wade Barker has a bad track record, and I believe if you researched it, you would fine some reports you will want to read.  

I pray you cancel your surgery, and find a surgeon who is not going to butcher you!  You should be nervous if this guy is your surgeon!

 You have every reason to be nervous. Your choice of surgeon needs to be revisited. That is the NICEST I can be about this. 

Please take the time to read some of these links.....

And, what Diana said.

 Bless you Caprice for finding those links!  I only pray she will go and read them!  You can lead a horse to water...

... but you can't make 'em think. 

i hope you will be happy with your ERNY cause that what you gonna get. You really need to reearch Barker alot further.

Please listen to this board. 

Dr. Barker is NOT an RNY to DS revision surgeon. 

There are only a few qualified to do this in the entire US.
