Hey Dr. Rutledges Patients need you help

Hi everyone I'm new here. I have my surgery scheduled with Dr. Rutledge in Henderson NV.
I have been reading a lot about Bile reflux that seems to be the biggest complaint so far.  How many of you out there of his paients have had this problem? Was it treatable with medicines like prilosec ect.?  Have any of you had to reverse or revise to a different WLS do to any complication from Dr. R doing this surgery?

Thanks

I had surgery with Dr R in April.  Have not had any Bile Reflux issues.   You might want to review his clinic page at

Hi,

I have a mild case of it which is aggrevated by bad food choices.  I don't get it every day and yes Prevacid or Nexium or even over the counter stuff helps.  It's like rolling dice, you don't know what, if any, issues you will have after recovery.  I can live with mine because my life is soooooooooo much better AND I would do this again in a heartbeat!!!!

 One month out and all good here.
