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
