Topic: RE: RNY + Pregnancy
The MGB is not really the same as the RNY...
In either case tho, I think your question could be better answered on the pregnancy board here at OH....Good luck!
Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind...

Topic: RE: My Rutledge experience
Dr. Rutledge is such a caring doctor that, after he had done my friend's surgery and she lost way too much weight and was in desperate need of revision surgery, he wouldn't even forward her medical records to the next surgeon! I would advise you all to steer clear of this man. I'll bet dollars to donuts those called upon in the audience had been planted there. He has been sued many times. Don't let it be you who needs to sue him next.

Charleston Mom, you have no idea how much I would love to hug you right now. Its so hard trying to put an opinion, or fact out htere without being shooting you down. Honestly if you were standing right beside me you would be getting a HUGE hug and tons of appreciation. thank you so much for putting in your two cents

I think you'll find most reputable bariatric surgeons, especially in NC, not recommending this surgery. Dr. Rutledge was well-known here. I won't say more than that other than to pull his public file and do a little research on him.
