surgeon in Gainseville, Florida

does anyone have a name of a surgeon in gainseville, FL who has done the lap Rou-n-y procedure?

Ding- I have two lists for you. The first list is from the American Society of Bariatric Surgery (ASBS) website and the second is from OH. I have not verified either list, but I would think that the ASBS list would be fairly accurate. Red ASBS List Bruce W. Brient MD Gainesville FL USA 352-331-5255 or 800-342-6057 Michael P. Hocking MD FACS Gainesville FL USA 352-265-0761 or 800-749-7424 x 50604 Muhammad A. Jawad MD Ocala FL USA 352-351-5770 William T. Overcash MD Ocala FL USA 352-368-2828 OH List Alex Macgregor Gainesville Bruce Brient Gainesville Eric Thoburn Gainesville Gary Grooms Gainesville Juan Cendan Gainesville Michael Hocking Gainesville Mike Chen Gainesville Peter Sarantos Gainesville Stanley Deturis Gainesville W. Robert Rout Gainesville

Most from that list are no longer doing surgery. Dr. Brient is still doing surgery, his partners aren't (thoburn, sarantos, deturis) Dr. Hocking is no longer doing surgery. Dr. Macgregor retired some time ago. I don't know the other surgeons. Obviously I'm partial to Dr. Brient since he is my surgeon. Kim

Thanks Kim I will update the list. Something OH obviously never does. I have taken their list and arranged the surgeons by geographic area and made it into a PDF file. I see so many requests for names of surgeons. Red

And I'm partial to Dr. Jawad who is tops in the field!! His rate of complications is so FAR below the national average it's not even funny! I felt so comfortable knowing him and knowing his work because I work in the Ocala healthcare field, and I knew the good hands I was placing myself into and never looked back! Good luck with finding your perfect surgeon! Jan 240/126/115 (at goal size)

did you have it done laproscopically?

Yes, I did have it done lap. Dr. Jawad does that most of the time but also does surgery open if necessary. I was out of work for 8 days and haven't looked back since. Jan 240/126/115
