I recall a few years back that DSers had a list of surgeons worth their salt. Does anyone have a link to that list? Thanks!

Hopefully they will allow this link to find the most trusted DS surgeons.  I've heard there may be more added very soon, but these are the tried and true.

Thank you Val! I found it myself after I asked the question - LOL!

You look great! I remember you from a few years ago and you were getting a bit thin. Doing Chia seeds if I remember correctly. :-)

Great memory!  I was doing chia seeds to raise my good cholesterol because I hate fish.

Thank you for the compliment.  At my thinnest, I was told I look like a scarecrow (I was only a size 6-8, sheesh).  I'm pleased with my regain, teetering between 160-165, "marginally overweight" at size 10-12 and got some boobs back.  I was kind of sad to leave the single-digit size, which I considered a huge victory.  Once I got over it, I admitted that I do think I look much healthier now and quite content.

Patty, the list is much in need of updating, but I can tell you that there is no one in your state (OR) doing the DS at this time. Your closest resources would be Dr. Srikanth in WA to the North, or Dr. John Rabkin in San Francisco to the South. I will also send you a pm.

Got your message larra. Thanks so much! I'm glad to see there is still a Rabkin in SF. My DH is from the Bay Area, so I did consider going there when doing earlier research. I'll also look into Srikanth.

I'm not sure this should be referred to as a "vetted" surgeons list any more although it is is still a list of
DS surgeons. I'm not surfe there is any vetting anymore besides verifying that a surgeon says he does the DS.

Maybe Val and Larra can comment on this since I just remember reading that the reorg of DSFacts may have changed
the criteria for being on the list. My apologies if I am misinformed but I thought I would mention it.
