Looking for surgeon in Ontario that does RNY revisions?
Why didnt your assigned surgeon refer you to a surgeon at Humber that does revisions to RNY. My revision was at Humber and my surgeon was Dr. John Hagen. It does not make sense to me that you would not be sent to Dr. Hagen.

Yes you are right I was a VSG and had a revision to RNY. That is why I wrote Dr Hagen revision to RNY. That is the way the surgery papers are written. So now that we have that clear...I cant understand why Dr Hagen did not refer this revision from RNY to a surgeon that could perform.

Hi Silentflame...sorry that he cant revise an already existing RNY to something else but I am surprised Dr Hagen didnt refer you to someone that can perform this surgery. Call his office again and ask for referral to the right surgeon for you. Good luck sorry to hear the RNY needs revision. I do want to hear more about your journey.

I had a friend that had RNY done many years ago and needed a revision. She was through TWH and they referred her to Dr. Hong in Hamilton. Your centre should know which surgeons can do them but if they don't, you could ask to be referred to him. From your title it sounds like you had a RNY originally or are you looking to be revised to a RNY from something else?
