Topic: RE: Question about Centennial surgeons (Nashville)?
I agree you can't go wrong!!! I had RNY with Dr Houston 9/12/11... He and his staff were (and still are) amazing!! The nurses at the hospital were amazing also...
The whole Centennial experience was amazing actually. They really are "a class act."

Topic: Protein?d? Cheese Sauce, by UNJURY® Protein
Has anyone tried it? I (reluctantly) ordered some because I struggle to keep my protein up. I was reluctant because most all protein has an offensive odor ... AND I really haven't found a mixable shake that I can tolerate ... But since they have an money back guarantee, I thought I would give it a try....
Got it in today.....No realy "odor," and OMGoodness!! It taste really good!! There is 21 gm of protein in a scoop. I mixed a scoop in 3 tablespoons of ho****er (directions say about 130 degrees - because of the clumping I think) and I poured about 2 tablespoons over some ground turkey with sauteed onions and it was DELISH!!
I plan on trying to get at least 2/3 scoop (about 14gm protein) daily to really BOOST my protein!! I am pretty excited! I figure if my "early out finicky pouch" can tolerate it (even LIKE it) that anyone can!!!!
Just wanted to share!!!!!

Topic: Anyone have Blue Cross Blue Shield TN and Saint Francis Memphis patients
I am new to all of this and am trying to start the process to eventually get the gastric bypass (route eny) surgery.
Does anyone know if BCBS TN covers this procedure and where I have to start. Could you maybe tell me about the process you had to go through.
I was looking into Dr. Weaver at Saint Francis.
Do you have to have a primary doctor or do they help you do all the paperwork at the surgery center?
Any info would be greatly appreciated!

I had RNY with Dr. Dyer and he was amazing. I had no complications and have already reached my goal at 10 1/2 months out. All three are very good.

Topic: RE: Question about Centennial surgeons (Nashville)?
All three surgeons are wonderful... Highly skilled with great personalities *****ally care about their patients. Dr, Houston is the only one who does the DS, so that made the choice for me. You could flip a coin: heads = Houston/tails = Olsen. If you find yourself saying, "I hope it's ______." then you've made your choice.
Of course if it lands on its edge, I don't know what to tell you.
(For what it's worth, my friend is having a VSG by Houston next week. She mainly chose Houston because of the 6 or 7 people we know and work with, all have seen Houston. YET, at our local support group, most have chosen Olsen. You really can't go wrong with either one.)

Topic: Question about Centennial surgeons (Nashville)?
Hello,
Has anyone had a VSG done by any of the surgeons at Centennial Center for the Treatment of Obesity in Nashville? I love the practice and am trying to decide on a surgeon. I like Dr. Olsen but it looks like he's done way fewer VSG's than Dr. Houston.
Any opinions about this would be SO greatly appreciated? I need to make my decision really, really quickly.
