Topic: RE: anyone go to metrohealth for PS

Hello,
I have had PS at Metrohealth with Dr. Bram Kaufman. Below is the link to his qualifications, reviews and more information you may find helpful.  He has an office in Pepper Pike, but has an office at Metrohealth.  I am one year post op PS and am very grateful for finding Dr. Kaufman.  He actually spoke at a support group meeting I attended and it went from there.  His office submits all the paperwork to the insurance company, which was very helpful.   If you have any specific questions you would like to ask, please send me a PM.
Hope this helps.

P.S.  If the link does not work, from the Ohio board click on surgeon, then click the PLASTIC button.  There is a list of OH member surgeons.

WTF!  The surgeon basically called those of us who didn't have a band "Crazy and Insane"

Nice publicity asshole.

Maybe I should put up an article stating that surgeons who can't perform gastric bypassed are unskilled and incompitent because they can't properly inform their patients in basic aftercare.
(Which I would never say... Doesn't even mention how lapband isn't the right choice for people with GERD)

uggh....  I'm going to dig into this more when I have time.

Might post it on the RNY and R&R boards while I'm at it.
