I have different thoughts on Dr. Chua.

I also have Dr. Chaing as my surgeon.  The whole staff is very nice and they have a good program.

I am doing fine. I weigh now between 135 to 138 lbs. So I have lost 182 lbs. I am over a year now and doing well. abit frustrated with the scale keeps creeping up to 138 lbs. I want to be between 130 to 135 range. I still see myself as a fat person. Even though I am wearing smaller clothes. I work out at Bally's 7 days a week as well. Maintaince is really a big struggle for me. As well as body image. I am stuck with the numbers on the scale.

Dr. Prewitt is in Menominee Falls which is south of Fond Du Lac on Hwy 45.  He has about 6 years experience now.  My family doctor at his clinic does my follow up care.  If Dr. Prewitt won't take you as a patient I know Dr. Ahuja is familiar with bariatric follow up care.  Dr. Ahuja is young but is really good.  Also Stacy the RD at the clinic is really good with bariatric follow up.  She straightened out my low blood sugars and is really smart and nice.  I have found that Advanced Healthcare has great doctors.  When I started going there in 2003 I was an absolute physical mess after 18 months and $100,000 of surgeries and tests at another clinic.  Dr. Miller at AH literally put me back together.  I am off insulin and all diabetes medications and my A1Cs are normal for 4 years this October when Dr. Prewitt did my RNY.  Just recently a foot surgeon at another clinic wanted to remove my toe nail permanently because of infections.  Dr. Schlenz saved my toe and nail.  This may not be important to some people but I like to wear sandals and I swim a lot so it was important to me.  3 weeks ago I was in horrible pain in my right arm.  I didn't sleep for 3 nights.  Finally I went in and Dr. Ahuja and Mike in PT have me pain free.  I guess I would recommend Advanced Healthcare.  Good luck to you, Daisy      

I went to the seminar for Dr. Wasco with the Midwest Bariatric center and DID NOT like what I saw as far as his interaction with people.

I then followed up with a seminar in Milw. with Dr. Chua from Aurora Sinai Hospital. I absolutely fell in love with his attitude, and to see his interaction with new people as well as with his current/past patients who did testimonials was amazing. You could feel the love, not only from the patients but from him towards those patients! There were patients from all types of WLS there...RNY's, Lapbands, VSG's, etc. He does them all.

He is currently in the process of starting seminars in Sheboygan. I'm not sure how far that is from Chilton, but I would definately look into his services.

I was referred to Dr. Chua by a friend who had her Lap-band done in Mexico 10 years ago before they were legally done here. He took her on as one of his first patients for followup care, about a month before they were even done here in WI. He was the first doc to do the Lapband here in WI.

I can't say enough about him. I look forward to going for my pysch/nut consults in Sept. I can't wait to get my consult with Dr. Chua.

Best wishes!
