Topic: RE: Does anyone know how I can reach Dr. Burrowes in Atlanta - trying to get records

I was looking him up last night due to possibly needing medical records, and apparently he's probably in his 70's now...I bet after all the issues that happened (I found out he apparently was suspended from practicing at Northside Hospital due to mortality rate and conduct, he was evicted from his offices due to non payment over a dispute about the rate?) he probably said forget this and retired.  But it's a mystery as to where....

So far you seem to be on a great start. I am referring to the bariatric shakes. My issue has been college, stress from fighting my daughters dad in court for child support, and working full time. I am on an emotional roller coaster which is never good. I congratulate you on your graduation. That is wonderful!

I JUST found this information on Dr. Burrowes on the Georgia Medical Board site; the site also says that he is not affiliated with any hospital in Atlanta.

Omg! I was just trying to find him less than 2 hours ago online. I didn't know that he was no longer at ATL MED Center. I have not seen him since 2007. Where the HAMSANDWICH IS HE!!??? Did he go back to his country? He did my surgery and had an excellent follow up team. I wish I could find him.

I too am returning after a long hiatus. I've gained 30 lbs back since my surgery in 2006. What type of shakes are you referring to? I'm  back in the gym 4 days weekly and waiting for the weather to get a little warmer, then hitting the outdoor track. I was a little, I won't say embarrassed because of the weight gain but disappointed that I would allow myself to get there. I had  LOT of issues I was dealing with, marriage, graduating from college and working. Well, the marriage is shot,(good thing), no more stress. I graduated from college and working full time In my profession and happy.  Not struggling anymore, and peace has never felt so good. I still eat from a saucer, not plate and small portions.  Anyways, what do you recommend?

Topic: RE: Support ?????

Hi!  I'm a 42 yo, newbie with my surgery date scheduled.  I haven't shared my journey with a lot of people because I didn't want to keep explaining or hear a lot of opinions.  There is always someone that will have a negative story or comment.  I decided six months ago to work toward having this surgery.  Today was my first day on the pre-op diet.  With every step forward, I'm more and more sure I'm doing the right thing.  I'm 271 pounds, a size 22 and the mother of a four year old. Mom diabetic, I have high blood pressure and polycyclic ovarian syndrome.  I think the most important question, the only important question is, what are you willing to do to be healthy.  I've lost and gained significant amounts of weight.  It gets harder every time so I knew I needed a tool to help me.  Do what's right for you...
