REVISION IN ALABAMA,HELP!
OK I AM JUST STARTING MY JOURNEY IN TRYING TO GET A REVISION FOR THE LIPROSCOPIC RNY GASTRIC BYPASS I HAD HERE IN HUNTSVILLE, AL IN 2002... FIRST I AM IN SEARCH OF A WEIGHT LOSS REVISION FRIENDLY DOCTOR WHO CAN REFER ME TO A SURGEON WHO HAS DONE SEVERAL REVISION SURGERIES... THE SURGEON DOESNT HAVE TO BE IN HUNTSVILLE...CAN ANY1 ASSIST ME IN OR RECOMMENDING WHERE I START OR REFERING A GOOD PRIMARY DOC WHO IS GOOD ABOUT REFERALS FOR WLS? THANKS IN ADVANCE... I CAN ALSO BE EMAIL AT [email protected]
I had an RNY in 2002 as well. Lost the weight, gained the weight. Decided to have a revision to a duodenal switch, kicking myself that I didn't do that first time around. Anyway, check out www.dsfacts.com and www.duodenalswitch.com for informaton on the procedure and a list of surgeons by state. Be sure to find a good revision surgeons then ask their offices if they can recommend a doctor that they work with. They say they typically don't do that, but I've never had a problem getting that kind of info out of someone on their staff.
