VSG to RNY Revision

I am considering a revision from VSG to RNY.

During my initial consultation with my Bariatric surgeon, I was assured that if reflux were a problem, the option would be available to do a revision.

When I mentioned to my Surgeon, about a year and a half out from surgery, that my reflux was still uncontrollable, I was told to consult a GI specialist. 

As a result, i would like to see  a different surgeon about doing a revision.  Can anyone reccomend a surgeon they used, who has experience with revisions and may be a good option for a consult? I live in the Bel Air/Harford County area.

Hi,

I am only 6 months out, but I picked a surgeon *****cognized that one surgery may not be all I need.  I wanted to make sure that if I need future 'pouch adjustments' he would be on my side.  Here is his webpage that addresses possible revisions:

He is in New Jersey, but thought that the info on revision techniques was helpful. Sorry, but I don't even know what state your county is in.

Best of everything,

Sharon
