Dr Greenbaum - Not Doing Revisions to DS

I finally worked up the nerve and got all my ducks in a row to contact Dr Greenbaum's office to make an appointment for a consultation about revising from my RNY to a DS.

I was told that he is not taking any more revisional patients at this time -- Staff didn't know if that was temporary or permanent!

Do any of his current patients now what is going on?

Now what?

hi
ask this on the DS board. I am in the process of approval insurance to have the RNY to DS revision.

I'm amazed. He never mentioned it when I went for my checkup. Did you email him directly? [email protected] is his address.

At your suggestion, Adele -- I have written him -- I will let you know if he replies.  I hope so.  Thanks.

I hope he is, my  6 month diet will be up in October and they know I am a RNY to DS revision.
I spoke to the office yesterday. No mention of it.

I spoke with Tina since I am currently awaiting Dr and insurance approval.  I asked about Dr.G not doing anymore Revisions.  She told me it's not cut and dry but he is being very selective with those patients with high BMIs. 

I'm a little freaked since I have a 50BMI.  I told her I will lose whatever I have to but I want and need this revision.  She said she will give the paperwork to Dr.G and will call me in a few days with a decision. 

Wish me luck!

Yes, I live just outside of Coral Springs.  I'm going to Dr.Greenbaum in NJ for a DS revision. 

What kind of revision are you looking into?  I may have some surgeons I can refer you too based on what you want done.

Let me know or PM (private message) me.
