DS performed by Dr. Inman?
She great! She just did the second have of the DS 4 months ago. She only does on DS week since they take longer to do in surgery. If you have any question just ask her. She will answer you back. Go over to the DS borad and more people will say something about her.
On the journey to losing weight, your friends & family will be the first people to try to knock you off. They do this not out spite, but out of being convicted and knowing they should do the same. It's easier to put someone down for doing the right thing, than for them to actually do it. So at your next family re-union or wherever you are eat your chicken and broccoli and smile when they make jokes about you, they are jealous!
I heard at a support group that she is the only one at St V doing DS. Why? The person I talked to got a December date last month. I'm just starting insurance, hoping to do a 90 day program, and I'm afraid my insurance might flop again and not cover WLS next year.
I don't want to start a DS vs RNY war. I've done A LOT of research and I know the DS would work better for me.
thanks!

it will be 2 years on the 29th since dr inman did my ds. i have not had any problems with her in particular- she and karen(her nurse) really listen to what you have to say. i did have some problems initally with the the lady that submits everything to insurance but everything turned out fine. the only complications i have had is some terrible heartburn, low iron and my weight loss slowed alot for about 9 months just a little over a year out but i figued out it was because i wasnt getting enough protien. a few months ago i added protien shakes back into my diet and the weight started coming off again. i have lost about 15 lbs in the last 2-3 months which is awesome since i am almost 2 years out and less than 7 lbs from goal. the best advice i can give you is this: visit the ds forum and ask lots of question and when you think you know everything there is to know just stick around cause even at 2 years out i still come up with questions to ask the ds veterans. good luck!
She is awesome..tells ya like it is, but knows her stuff!!! She did DS surgery for myself and my husband. Hubby his goal after like a year (men lol) and I have lost 189lbs. I am actually going to talk to her about getting resleeved to loose the rest of my weight, so we'll see how it goes! You can message me if you have any questions. I highly reccomend her!
