My husband and I are 62 and we had our surgery on Oct. 10, 2007. We are thankful we did. He is already off diabetes medicine. We are looking forward to our new life together. Jo Ann

As far as I know, Dr. Steven Simper is the only surgeon in Utah who does the Duodenal Switch. He does it laproscopically.

Topic: Brother needs a surgeon, please.
Hi everyone. I don't want to start anything. I just need information. Anyone know of a surgeon that does the Laparoscopic Duodenal Switch? This website is the pits as far as not having the correct information. They ([email protected]) told me to go to the boards and get what I needed. Thank You!!!

With The Lords Help... Debbie.

Topic: OH Events contest: where do YOU want us to come?
The 2007 event year is quickly coming to its end. We've had a lot of fun, met hundreds of people, made new friends, strengthened each other, and empowered ourselves to continue on our journeys. With the close of the 2007-year, our eyes turn to the future, to 2008. Where will we go? Our team has analyzed locations, researched demographics, met with support groups, consulted with area professionals for hours.. and HOURS.. and hours! We do this because YOU are worth it. It is our goal to reach out to as many people as possible. But, we can't decide where to kick off the 2008 year! We've arm wrestled, had ping pong tournaments, basketball games and other battles of wills. So... we need your help to make this decision! We're having a contest. Where do YOU want us to come to? Let us know! For the month of November, we will leave this post up. Reply and shout out to us where you want us to come to. If you have ever wished for OH to come to your area, now's the time to speak up! Get your friends, surgeon and support group involved! Simple reply to this post and let us know the area you want us to come to. At the end of November, we will count up all of the votes and we will make the announcement in December. Rules of the game: -Since this is a member's contest, you must be a member to vote -Each member can only vote once for the same area -Members CAN vote for multiple locations -One post, one vote. If you want to vote for another location, make a separate reply. -All votes have to be a reply to this one of the 'contest' posts -Due to logistics, we may not be able to come to the exact city requested, but we will come to that 'area' as close as possible. So now is the time to let your voice be heard! Where do YOU want us to come to?
