DS on Aug 9, 2007 with Dr. Hazem Elariny
Good grief.... I'm know the feeling of "long distance", but let me say this loud and clear.....It is soooooo worth it. I had to drive 3 hours from Oklahoma City (THUNDER UP!!!!!) to see Dr Stewart. I would do it again 10 times over. I had to go with Dr. S because of insurance. There isn't a bariatric surgeon in Oklahoma that does the DS, plus the hospital part was free if it was done at an HCA hospital, I work for one in the city. If you have ANY questions I would be more than happy to chat with ya.
