Just curious. Would you recommend your surgeon for a WLS revision surgery?

Yes, Dr. Philip Schauer at The Cleveland Clinic.

I originally had a WLS in the late 70's.  It was extreme and was discontinued.  Due to medical complications, I had to have the procedure reversed in the mid 80's.   There was concern regarding the condition of the small intestines and the feasibility of the RNY.

I was in surgery for 7 hours, however, I seem to be off to a good start. (I think they may have stepped out for dinner and a movie).

Best Wishes.

I had Dr. Stacy Brethauer at the Cleveland CLinic.  He was fabulous.  Him and Dr. Schauer are partners there.   It was a good experience at the clinic

I would!  I was a band to sleeve revision..had my band 10 years.  My surgery went off without a hitch, hospital stay was great. 

His name is Dr. Craig Eyman.  He does surgery out of Parma Hosp and I think has offices on the East side as well.

It was a good experience.

Dr. Aviv Ben-Meir at St. Vincent Charity Hospital was great and I loved the team there as well. My only negative is that I live in Akron, OH so I started seeing Dr. Z at Summa City Hospital. I herd he was good at revisions too.
