She did remarkable following surgery, no complications, hardly any pain and a quick recovery! Best of luck with your surgery!

Thank you so much for that info. You are the only one that has responded giving info on Dr Diminguez. I am thrilled to hear that she was pleased with him. :)
I'm having a VERY hard time finding a surgeon, but they're helping me. They've got an extensive list of bariatric surgeons and general surgeons that might be willing to perform the procedure. I'm still looking, but I thought I'd share the number with you. After calling around on my own and being so frustrated, it's wonderful having somebody to help me in my search.
Best of luck!
...and if you find somebody, please post so the rest of us can jump on board too!
Thank you for your response, however I have been in touch with Medicaid regarding PCP drs in my area and they provided a list. I picked a dr from their list during enrollment time and they sent my card with his name listed on it as my pcp dr. When I wanted to use him, I found out that he does not accept medicaid and was not abke to see him. In fact, noneof the Drs on their list accepted medicaid. Now I am in a very big bind bc I need a primary physician to recommend me for my surgery and I do not have one! So please, do not just go by their list. You must call each Dr. I'm positive Dr.Dominguez is the only Dr in Louisiana that accepts medicaid for the sleeve, however Im willing to bet that medicaid has several Drs listed. So BEWARE!!

Hi Darby!
I am on m way to having gastric sleeve. I selected Dr. James Redmann (Dr. Lavin's associate), do you know of anyone or heard anthing about him?
If anyone else can provide any information or reviews it would be appreciated immensely! Of course I am both anxiety driven and excited. I met Dr. Redmann and absolutely loved him, just wondering if anyone else had him do the sleeve and how did they do after.
Thank you all fellow sleevers! Donna
Hi all!! It doesn't look like this post has been updated. The only Dr I have found that takes medicaid as of July 2015 is Dr.Dominguez in Covington on Northshore. If you know of anyone else, pls state the Dr.
Also, Im looking for anyone who has had expirience with Dr Dominguez personally as a bariatric surgeon. Thanks!
