new DUODENAL SWITCH PATIENT
Tiffaney, another thing: When you go to your followup tomorrow, DEMAND a copy of your op report. Do not be satisfied with anything less. This schmuck might very well have lied on the report, but at least you'll have it in hand. You need to know exactly what was done to you. I'll eat my Birkenstocks if you had a full, genuine RNY to DS revision, complete with a takedown of your RNY pouch, reconstruction of your stomach, followed by a subtotal vertical gastrectomy. I would want to know the exact configuration of the small intestine as well.
WTF? Tiffaney, please tell me this is a glitch and you didn't deactivate your account. (Such glitches do happen sometimes. You can email [email protected] and ask them to look into it. Or you can register again.)
And I really, really hope this wasn't a troll. Sigh.

Oh no, that is horrible.

If you can't reach him thru his medical office, you might try contacting him via Lascaux Films where he is an executive producer http://www.lascauxfilms.com/. He's been preoccupied with the state medical board recently also. If he's too busy to see you in the hospital, provide routine postop follow-up, or deal with postop complications as you've suggested then there's a fully-vetted bariatric surgeon who has done hundreds of DS's just 38 miles down the road that I can personally vouch for.
