Northeast Ohio?

I am looking for a bariatric physician in the northeast ohio area. I am about 40 miles south of Cleveland, 10-15 west of Akron. The closer the better. I had my RNY at bariatric treatment center in Groveport. Which is like 2 hours away. I would like to see what condition my RNY is in, whether I need a revision, or have other options. Has anyone in my area had a revision? I'm curious as to how they determine if one is necessary. Any help would be great.

My Dr works out of Akron General. Dr Chystla. Here is his website www. obesehelp.org phone 330 344 1100. Hope this helps.

Thank you, I wasn't finding anyone close by.

also check out akron city (summa hospital ) program i love Dr Z i didnt have to deal with my insurance company at all they handled everything for me the staff there are all top notch we have alot of resources in this area be sure to check all your options and find whats a good fit for you Missy

Thanks Missy, I guess there are more options than I was able to find on my own.

I go to University Hospital in Cleveland. As far as I am concerned I would drive as far as I would have to go go there! They are awesome! The whole team is great! I think, of course that we all would recomend where we go! But UH has a program that is great! If you need more information please feel free to email me! Sue 320/130 goal/current weight 120

Oh my, Sue. How did you manage to lose that much weight in just over a year? Maybe I should have waited to have mine, I have a feeling that the surgery has gotten better in the last 5 years. I started out at 378, got down to 225. Then I started gaining 8/05. I am concerned about my RNY. I had the open procedure, and just wonder how everything is going. I have heard about the problems that people have had. I don't know if there are any doctors in the area that do revisions, I guess I just need to find out what is going on first. Thanks for your help. I now have options.

Does this help? http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/bariatric+surgeons+in+ohio.html

Thanks, I had looked around on here and discovered the search options available. Again, since it has been so long since I have been to a bariatric physician, I thought I would get some suggestions from people in the area. Since I have discovered this web-site, it has been quite helpfull. I just wish I had known of it sooner. Thanks
