RNY to DS-Would like to talk to someone who has this revision
Hi there! I'm a new RNY to DS Revision and was lucky enough to have a surgeon who performed this procedure right in my backyard! Not sure what's available in TN, but I do want to extend an invitation to you to come visit the Duodenal Switch Forum here on Obesity Help. There are several RNY to DS Revision people there and they can provide you with a wealth of resources and information! Just know you are not alone in your search and there is an excellent support system out there ready to help you! :)
Good luck on your search!

There are plenty of posters I see on the DS Forum who have used Dr. U! Here's the link... http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/ds/ Don't be shy... introduce yourself, ask your questions, they are a very helpful bunch!
