There used to be a WLS support group that met once a month at the Jaycees in Waldorf. Not sure if it still does? I didn't find it super helpful so I stopped going shortly after surgery.

Dr. Schweitzer did my VSG procedure back in June 2015. Can't say enough good things about him and his team!  :)

I've been fat, and I've been thin - and thin is better.

Topic: RNY revision in Maryland Questions

Morning folks,

1.  Has anyone had a RNY revision in Maryland?  If yes, by what surgeon?

2.  Has anyone had RNY to DS revision by a Maryland based surgeon?  If so, who?

 

3.  How laborious is the insurance approval process?
