I am looking for the current list of doctors who preform the RNY to DS. I had a RNY in 2004, lost about 100, but did not reach my goal weight. I have regained about 50 lbs and looking into having the revision surgery and wanted to see who the closest doctor is. I live in TN. Thanks for your help.

I'm pretty sure Dr. Boyce in Knoxville does RNY to DS revisions.

Yes, I had the RNY in 2003 it didn't work well for me. I am in process of getting approved for DS. Keep me posted. Here is the website for Dr. Foreman.

What did Dr. Foreman tell you about revising to the DS?

Really??? I've never heard of him before. How long has he been doing RNY to DS revisions? Any idea how many he's done, who he learned it under, etc.? It's always GREAT to have a new surgeon who does this very complicated surgery.

Can you post a link to his website?
