Hello,

I had a gastric bypass back in 2008 and I haven't lost all the weight a large majority of it in fact.

I was wondering how much did yours or what have you been quoted to have a revision done?

Hopefully one of the wiser folks will show up to help you too, but what I do know is it depends on what you want to revise to and any revision takes a very good surgeon who has experience with revisions. They are much more difficult than a "virgin" surgery.

What do you want to revise to? You need to do a lot of research and figure that out first. It you are thinking about a revision to a DS, there are ONLY a handful of surgeons that can do that complicated surgery, and none of them are in FL, so you will have to travel. The price will differ depending on the surgeon. You will have to contact individual offices to get that information. As for RNY-DS surgeons, here they are:

The Doctors listed below are the ONLY ones that are experienced to do a RNY-DS revision. The ONLY ones.

Dr. Rabkin, Dr. Keshishian, both are located in California

Dr. Elariny, located in Virginia

Dr. Roslin, located in New York

Dr. Buchwald, located in Minnesota

Of course, the above doctors are in the United States

Dr. Gagner, located in Canada (Does most revisions in two parts)

Dr. Baltasar, located in Spain

Dr. Marchesini, located in Brazil
