Hey, if things don't work out in Halifax, does anyone from the Annapolis Valley want to go to Dr. Ponce DeLeon in the spring? I have spoke to Trish in Nov and it can happen quite quickly>>>>>> Want to go, anyone?
Hi, welcome to the site. From what I hear the surgery happens quite fast. Within weeks! I am trying everything in my powers to get the procedure done here but am willing to get it done in Mexico if I can't get in here soon. I have spoken to the patient coordinator wit Dr. DeLeon in Mexico and she said that I can pretty much pick the date I want to have it . I just don't understand why it is soooooo long to have it done here. 10-15 years I can't wait that long...I will be dead by then!
Hi I am new to this site, and would like all the help you can give. I have done research on Dr. Kelly and would know like to take the first step towards a new life. Can anyone direct me it the right direction? How long from the first contact with the doctor does surgery happen?

My internal Dr. sent me a requisition to complete in Jan for liver function and cardiac functioning as well as the usual thyroid functioning tests. I hope this a good sign. I told him that my Dad had a heart attack at 43 and has heart disease as well as my grandfather soooo since I am now 42 hopefully they will do something. I hope that it works out and i don't want any negative comments as I am trying to do what's best with a small child at home. If this does not pull through I will be going the Mexico route in a minute.... In the new year life will be changing for the better!!!!!! And I can't wait!
How do I contact Dr. Kelly? I've only heard good things about that name on this forum...
Nevermind I found it :)
There is ONE bariatric surgeon in NS. You can google his name. He's in HFX.
From what I hear he won't look at ppl that he hasn't preformed the surgery on.
I have a referral in to a general surgeon for follow up.
