DO NOT USE JERASLUEM HOSPITAL
????? I'm sorry you had a bad experience and I hope to God you stay on the ds board and stay on top of your health.
Yes I did look on here I will admit that I'm not great at finding things on this site nor am I a computer wiz but I did the best I could do and hours and months of it to research dr's. I even spoke to 5 references from them and about 10recent patients of his from here. Thought that was enough. I only found one bad comment on him regarding a stomach leak patient that ended up in the icu. That should have been enough but then there was a negative issue with every dr I looked at. Was not just decided easily on my end. I fortunately did ok with the dr. So far at least, fingers crossed. It was the facility that was just horrific. I'm not asking anyone to feel bad for me or anything I am only thankful to god I made it in and out of there and seem to be ok and only want no one else to go to this miserable place. I will absolutly be following up with a bariatric doctor here at home. I kissed the ground when back across the border for sure and realized just how blessed I am. Thanks

You should (1) ask Almanza for your surgical records (assuming they exist, or are believable); and (2) at the first HINT of trouble, get someone to do an UGI or EGD to see whether you actually got a proper sleeve, and a CT with contrast to see what your intestinal arrangement is. I seriously doubt you got a standard of care procedure. I'd be willing to bet there was no intestinal rearrangement at all, and you probably just got a sleeve.
