Topic: RE: Surgeons in NM
Hi! The last surgeon here retired last year. I was reffered to Dr. Lara in El Paso at Del Sol Bariatric Center..Great Dr. great staff, you should see if you can get in touch with them.
Topic: RE: Surgeons in NM
There are NO surgeons in NM at the present time that do bariatric surgery.
I know of 2 surgeons in Lubbock Texas
Dr. David Syn and Dr. Eldo Frezza Both have great reputations...I'm sure that you can find patients of both these fine doctors here at OH that would be glad to talk about the doctors and their individual protocols.
I had my surgery by Dr. Syn August 9, 2004 and I'm doing great. I had researched my options and had met Dr. Daniel Igwe. I was actually on his waiting list at that time,,,,and so far I'm still on his list and have not heard anything since then. He was setting up a waiting list while pending approval from his hospital to perform bariatric surgery. He told me that he studied in California with Dr. Fobi.
Good Luck to you,
Beckey
Topic: RE: Looking for good surgeon in NM
Dr. Syn is wonderful, I sure hope that you can keep your appointment...or at least get it rescheduled.
His website is www.advancedbariatricsurgery.com
I will keep you in my prayers.
Good luck

Topic: Please Vote, I need support
I am trying to become a contestant for a Fitness Challenge. I had written an essay for the Kokomo Tribune and have been chosen as 1 of 5 people to be voted on. I am asking for support of any and everyone I may know. I need to get people to vote on my essay. This requires people to log onto www.kokomotribune.com and click on The Fitness Challege. There you will be able to read the essays and have an opportunity to vote. In order to vote you have to register which takes like 5 minutes, and it has to be an email other than hotmail, and yahoo. It did accept my school email. So I am sure you have all seen me in on here and understand my desire to want to get a gym membership and an opportunity to change my life. Please please please assist me in this process. I am normally a quiet person, but in this case, I am not too shy to beg. You will know your vote went through because at the end the results will pop up.
Thanks,
Amy Ashley

Hi Becky,
I am Jaymie's mom in NM. I live in Ruidoso. My Doc wanted to send me to Dr Frye in Alb, but I checked him out and he's been sued etc. Didn't want him. My Dr tried to get an appt w/ Dr Frye but he is in Chicago now, yay. The next Dr is can you believe it? Dr Syn in Lubbock. I have an appt for Feb 3 that I think I might have to cancel because my car needs work on the pump and I might not be able make that appt. I'm going to call and see if there is some kind of help for getting there. Anyway that's what is going on with me. Sorry I took so long to get back to you, I put my computer in the shop on Dec 12 and just got it back this week.

Topic: Walking Challenge
I have been using the Walking Forum as my own personal space to log my walking goals. I have decided to expand a little and issue a challenge to all the walkers in OH land.
HOW IT WORKS
Set a goal in minutes or miles for the month of February. Every time you walk, go to the walking forum and log it. At the end of the month see if you reached your goal. It is that simple!
EXAMPLE
I will walk 10 hours in the month of February.
or
I will walk 25 miles in the month of February.
These can be any type of walks - around the neighborhood, the track, treadmill, mall walks, Walk Away the Pound videos, what ever. But they do need to be walks, not exercise in general.
Come on, let's get out there and walk!

Topic: Surgeons in NM
Ok, I knew Dr.Fry was not here anymore, but then someone who had their surgery told me that Dr. Terry was doing it, but Dr. Terry is not doing it either.
So I checked on the message boards, found our about Dr. Igwe in Las Vegas NM, but I called and they do not know his whereabouts.
I am waiting to see if I am qualified for the county indigent care, it looks promising. I appreciate any input, thanks
