I am looking at having a revision surgery from band to sleeve and still researching doctors.  I know Dr Myers does the VSG and have attended his seminar.  Has anyone on the Ohio board had VSG with Dr Myers?  Care to share your experience with me?  You can PM me or leave a message here.  Thanks!!

I had the RNY with Dr. Myers and really like him and the whole Fresh Start program.  The program is very focused on changing habits and is very supportive.  The surgery experience was very smooth for me, and I liked that we were given private rooms and a lot of aftercare attention.

While the VSG is not his most common surgery, I've spoken to a couple sleeve patients at support group who've had good experiences and good results.

Let me know what other questions you have.

Thanks for your reply!  Doesn't seem like there is much traffic on the Ohio Board for this website!  I really need a Dr that is experienced with revision surgery since it is more complicated than a straightforwad WLS.  I guess I'll find out more after I meet with Dr. Myers!
