Hi,

i am still in the early stages because my insurance requires a 3 month program first but thinking if using either Dr Gridley at Ochsner Northshore Slidell or Dr Redmann with southern surgical. Anyone have any experience with either? I'm going to do the gastric bypass because I have SEVERE GERD and could never imagine it getting worse lol.

Yes I did and I really liked him.

That was 3 yrs ago when I got the sleeve.

i lost about 70 lbs & have kept it off. I just wasn't able to exercise.

I now have hiatal hernia & he'll be repairing it for me next month.

I am very blessed with my results. However one of the side effects of the sleeve is a slim possibility of developing GERD & or a hiatal hernia.

I thought Dr Gridley was a very caring dr for his patience & always explained everything in detail. He also never made me feel like he was as just too busy to care for his patients health. It's hard to find a dr lol me that imo.

Back then he took Medicaid but I don't know if he still does There ate a few Bariatric drs at the new medical clinic across from Fairview it's called AVA....

Dr GRIDLEY repaired it on 7/19/2019.

I was having trouble swallowing. Like I could literally feel the food passing down into my stomach.

Come find out the hernia had strangled off above 1/3 of my sleeve.

The symptoms I had were from both GERD & the hernia. I had trouble swallowing. Like French fry would get stuck & take forever to go down. Meat, any kind was also difficult to swallow. It wasn't agonizing pain but you'd notice when you that something didn't feel right. I also had a lot of nausea for no reason as well.

i wish you well. If you think you may have one go get checked soon ok
