the docs at surgical specialists use?
I know it's universal and the question was asked at my nutritional class at the hospital but I didn't catch the answer.
I was sleeved by Dr. French on 4/28.
People keep asking me that question and I don't know the answer so I'm curious!

you can link them this site and it shows the different sizes in a way that most of us can relate too. I found this last friday.

Thanks but that doesn't tell me what size my doc used. I just figured someone here who had used Surgical Specialists would have know. I guess I will just have to get off my lazy butt and call them and ask them!

Hey Good...

That's Dr. Lavin's group, right?

If so, I believe it is 32 french, which is the smallest!

I was sleeved May 2010 and that's what mine is!

Thanks...I actually went for my 3 month checkup last week and read it in my surgical notes.
I was happy to find that answer!

I was sleeved April 28...so we're not far apart.
How are you doing so far?
Pleased?
