Doctors in Atlanta for revisions?

Hey guys, I have a coworker who is looking for a doctor to perform a revision for her. I'm not sure how long ago she had surgery. She is having a hard time finding someone to work with her, she said Dr. Champion wouldn't touch her with a 10 foot pole. Any ideas? Thanks! Kelle

Dr. Celio Burrowes will do revisions...but he mandates the Fobi Pouch for a revision. It costs $4500 extra. I am a revision patient, having had the pioneer version of bypass surgery back in 1976. At that time they left the stomach intact and bypassed all but 18" of your intestinal tract. Total malabsorption...diarrhea, vomiting. I was dying a slow death, literally. Had to be reconnected 10.5 months later with a loss of 132 lbs. I vomited every single day except July 4th! lol...I still remember that! Needless to say it took me a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time to ever even imagine going under the knife again. My revision has worked our great. He found none of the scar tissue and "stuff" he was afraid he might find after he got inside. I'm 13 weeks out...55 lbs. lighter and feelin' pretty dang good.

I would also suggest Dr. Burrowes.

Yah i think Burrows is the only one around that will do revisions a friend of moms is going to him for one actually and she has to get the fobi pouch so Laura

Thanks guys for your help! I've forwarded Dr. Burrowes name to my coworker and hopefully she can get some help from him. I'll be out of town this weekend so I'll check with ya'll on Monday! Kelle

Yes i would say Burrowes too , i talked with 2 different ladies who had revisions from DR. Burrowes and they were really pleased . Travis

Dr. Leena Khaitan at Emory mentioned her only leak was on a revision, but it was quickly taken care of. If you can put up with Emory's bariatrics departments "slow as a heard of turtles in molasses in Jan." system then you will get top notch surgeons.
