If not Dr. Nagle who for WLS?

Hi Everyone, I had my WLS via Dr. Nagle. Love the man, he did a great job... My DH has decided to have the Gastric by pass. Now keep in mind he went to all the classes and such with me and lives it everyday. He travels and we are not to fond of the Wellness Center program. Sorry but it's true. I am suppose to be one of their great success stories and never attended anything after surgery. So what does that say Who did your sugery and what kind of hoops do you have to jump through to get it done? Thanks for your help!!! Take care, Kathy 330/116 PS - April 14, 2006 Inner thigh lift, LBL, TT with MR, BA and BL PS - June 30, 2006 Arms, back/bra skin, lower face lift PS pics available on www.picturetrail.com login ksitter password skinny

Kathy, where are you located? I know I love my surgeon, Dr. Fred Tiesenga but he is in Oak Park. He was definately worth the drive for me. Good luck with your search and hope that all things work out for the best for you and your family. Shelley

Hi Shelly, Wow, girl you look fabulous!! Love your picture We live near Naperville and drove downtown more times than carter has liver pills when I had my surgery. So driving isn't an issue. It's just my DH doesn't want to take 8 months to a year for the surgery. If he had not gone through it with me, I would insist on it but he knows what he has to do and I think he is ready. Thank you so much for the surgeon's name, I will check it out. Take care, Kathy

Thanks! I know Dr. Fred doesn't take too long. I only waited 2 weeks and that was due to some issues on my part and my girlfriend waited about a month. If you need his number, just email me I can send it to you. Shelley

Kathy yup DR.FRED TISINGA is the way to go!! I had laporscopic gastric bypass 14months ago . No complications. Dr.Fred knows what he is doing. He was so proud of himself he had my surgery done less than an hour. I still go to all the support group meetings. Kathy by the way How are you hun? We had our first round of plastics around the same time. I know you have had your second round . Mine will be some time in Dec/06 i will have my mini lower face lift , bood lift .Back lift, Oh im sorry i got off the title. Good luck in choosing a surgeon for your hubby. Take care CHER

Kathy, Personally, I love Dr. Frantzides and his whole program. Aftercare for those who want it is there, but they don't force-feed it to you. Its totally up to you whether or not you use it. I think he's the bomb-diggety...just like Dr. Fenner!!! xoxo K

Look at you girl! With your new picture and all. You are looking Fantastic!!! Thanks for the info. I have sent this to my DH for him to look at.... Take care, Kathy

Hi Kathy Paul Guske did my surgery. He is fabulous. He works out of Alexian Brothers in Elk Grove or St. Alexius in Hoffman Estates. I can't say enough good things about him. Best regards, Ronna

Thank you so much Ronna, I will be sure and let my DH know.... You guys are great! Take care, Kathy

I had Dr. Guske too. I love him as well.
