I had my lap RNY in  2006 by Dr Georgeon and he was wonderful and his nurse Betsy  is great.  Dr Shultz assisted Dr Georgeon, so Wasco doesnt always, they have 2 or 3 others in there that also assist.  I dont know Dr Wasco, just have seen him in the office and at some support groups, he seems very nice. Ive only seen Dr Georgeon once since my surgery and that was because I had what they call a Seroma, after surgery. Otherwise I always saw Betsy. I havent been there since my 2 year anneversary but will go now in March. I made the big mistake and stopped going to the support group meetings because I moved away, but now am back. I have gained about 20 pounds and really need to get back on track. I believe going to the group meetings and seeing Lori the dietician helps keep you on track. Deb

Is anyone out there a real estate agent or have been a real estate agent.

Thanks

My wife has made it through the surgery with no complications this morning and is resting comfortably in her room.

She is feeling good enough to worry about how her hair looks!  She really wanted to take rollers, a curling iron and blow dryer with her, but I talked her out of it.

This is my second time trying to get Gastric Bypass, but this time around I have done my research for getting insurance that covered Gastric Bypass. The first time was 5 years ago and after all the pre-op examinations I was denied, then was denied 4 times through appeals.  Now I have UHC through my wife's work and the only prerequisite is that your bmi is over 40 and mine is over 50.  I am getting the procedure done by Dr. James Burhop at the Bariatric Institute of Wisconsin.  I am getting the roux-en-y procedure done laproscopically.  I have my dietician consult group meeting tomorrow night, then next week wed the 17th I have my physical therapy evaluation, and on friday the 19th I have my brachospasm eval, ekg, lab work, and psych test.  Then once that is all done it will get submitted to the insurance company.  Then comes the ever such fun fun fun times of keeping on the insurance company until they approve my surgery.  It would be nice if I could get the surgery done by the end of Jan / early Feb.  We shall see what happens with it though.
