Holly why him? I had an bypass RNY originaly. then went to Mexico and they did an RNY to RNY revision but they didnt do anything with my stretched pouch or stoma. I can still eat 2 plates of food with it just goes through me faster since alll they did was shorten my intestine to make me a distal. I want to find a DR that will make my pouch restrictive again.

He seems to have less trouble with his patients and complications. Not to say he never has complications,just seems like the vast majority come back with what they went for and satisfied with the care.

This is also not to say he is better than other Mx surgeons,it has just been My observation in the 5 years I have been on the board. I think he will tell you honestly what is wrong with your pouch and if and how it might be fixed.

I have contacted him and Nina has passed on my info. He seems to think it sounds like Dr lopez should haave reduced the size of my stoma sine he felt the pouch was fine. But since I can still eat so much he thinks the food is passing right thru the pouch and into the intestine. I am sending him a copy of my barium swallow cd so he can review it. I am also getting another endoscope done here so he can know the exact sizes of everything. He is just a bit on the pricey side. I wish I would have done more research and spent my 10K the right way the first time around.

I know he is pricey but that is also one of the reasons heis GOOD. I blessedly enough have not had any trouble with my sleeve but I know what you mean about spending our money t the right place first time around. 

 

I do believe tough,if anyone can get you  fixed it is I'm. GL and keep us posted.
