Topic: RE: Questions regarding surgery

Hi Kristy,
I agree. I see Oakley today for my preop visit. I think everyone in the office are more than willing to help with information and if they dont know they will find out for you. Great people at Oakley's office.
I have 13 days and I am so excited about my new life. Reading alot of information will help. Thank you for your help

Topic: RE: Help

What area of Idaho are you in?

I actually chose to fly to Denver and will have my surgery in 5 more days- Yeah!

The reason I choose Dr. Thomas brown in Denver is I'm cash pay and it is almost 10,000 cheaper than anywhere around here.

Good luck!

Topic: RE: MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!

I would not recommend Dr. Ko to anyone. His beside manner is TERRIBLE. He almost killed (I mean literally!) my father because he did not take the time to look for a perforation in his bowel and my father became septic. You will use Dr. Ko at your own risk.

I live in Meridian Very close to Boise. Dr Oakley is wonderful. I am having surgery on Oct. 28th and there team is great with everything. Make an appt to talk to him. He will give you the info to decide. Classes come after your appt with the doctor. But not many. It is easy Check out St. Lukes on line for boise. Seminar would help you.
Check out that site for Bariatrics.
Take care and write back
