Surgeons near Aiken, SC?
Hi. I'll be visiting my parents in Aiken. I had my RNY on 4/9/08 and then a stomach perf on 7/11/08. I went to the closest ER, which was a hospital that did not have a bariatric program and they really mismanaged my care. My surgeon told me to always go back to the hospital where I had my initial surgery because he (or the other bariatric surgeons) understand how to care for a WLS patient.
So I'll be there for 2 weeks, and I guess I am a nervous nelly, but I want to know where the closest hospital with a bariatric surgeon on staff is to Aiken. Anyone know? I just want to be prepared in case I have an issue. I'm thinking probably Augusta, GA or Columbia.
Thanks!
Leigh
