I have to agree with you. I refuse to read anything he has to say, since he told me I do not belong here and for me to leave.
I do not believe he belongs here. I know this board has been through a lot, but it had improved a little in the recent past. The long time members and others were trying to get things back on track as far as working better with one another and being positive.
Lost 271lbs with my LapBand in 22 months! My Band malfunctioned and I gained almost 42lbs and then revised to the Sleeve 9/24/12! I lost another 140 lbs with my Sleeve! Loved the LapBand and Lovin' The Sleeve!
I think having a bariatric doctor on here seeing and commenting on posts, offering up tips to us, is a bad idea. This should be limited to a part of the site intended for this purpose or become a sticky at the top of the page that is locked. It would creep me out if my doctor came on here and started interacting with us...there is no expectation of privacy, but there is an expectation that if we're having complications, we can speak of them openly, without DD coming in and telling us we caused our own problems.

Fortunately most surgeons are too busy taking care of patients, or in the OR to hang out on a message board all day.
