My surgeon gave me 3 different names.....Dr. Montag (female) http://www.yourplasticsurgeryguide.com/surgeons/p/surgical-i mages-omaha-breast.htm, Dr. Armstrong (female) (I couldn'd find her website...if she has one) and Dr. Ramos (male) http://www.cosmeticsurgicalsolutions.com/gallery/index.htm . I think they all probably work with post WLS patients since it was my weight loss surgeon *****commended them. I'm not sure what their specialties are though. I have talked to one person who went to Dr. Armstrong and 2 who went to Dr. Ramos and all were happy. (all were also bariatric patients) There is a person in our local support group who went to someone in Ohama but I can't remember who it was (not one of the 3 above). I could find out for you if you would like another name.
There's a joke that goes like this... A man goes to the Dr. & says, "Doc, I don't think I'm very smart. Matter of fact I feel pretty dumb." Doc says, "Take these smart pills , see me in a week."The man does as the Dr. orders & comes back in a week. He says,"Doc I don't think these smart pills are any good. I don't feel any smarter." Doc says, "Sometimes it takes two weeks." So he gives the man another batch & says,"come back next week." The man does as he's ask & returns the next week & says,"Doc, I don't think these are pills at all. I think these are rabbit droppings." Doc says,"See... now you're gett'n smart." The point I would like to make is this, After my surgery my Dr. said,"I don't want you to get you calories from liquid or soft food." He also said if you do as I say, you will be very successful." Okay, here's the deal...Lately I had gotten in the habit of eatting a lot of yogurt w/cereal. I couldn't figure out why my weight loss had come to a stand still. Dah...Because I was eating so much soft food. I'm back on very solid protein & everything is coming together. I must have ate enough of those droppings to finally get smart ! Gee, and it only took me 9&1/2 mos. Dah
