Spokane Dr. Trotter?? newbie here
Hi there,
I had RNY last Oct. with Dr. Trotter. He is great.
They have a group on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at Holy Family. I think it is at 6pm. You can call and ask to speak with Linda Cox, she is the coordinator for the bariatric program there and is really nice. You can tell her I sent you if ya want.
Let me know if you have any questions.

We never touch people so lightly we do not leave a trace.

I'm kind of surprised that your doctor agreed to the RNY with you being less than 80 lbs overweight; I thought one had to be at least 100 lbs overweight.
Did you have other weight-related health issues?
You've done fabulous! Congratulations!

He recommends Metagentics Bariatrix Essentials which he gives you a site or password (can't remember) and you get it cheaper than if you just order it without his info. I think of all that I tasted it is the best. Also has the bariatric vitamins you can buy. When I went he had just started his office and the staff was not very knowledgeable but now they all know what is what so not sure how long your wait would be. I know it wasn't too long...I wasn't in a hurry so just kinda went with the flow...I think maybe 3 weeks after I saw the seminar....but I may have waited to call for an appointment....
I did shakes preop and cut out fast food and other junk. Lost 10 lbs before surgery so it made the surgery go better, liver which had been enlarged, was in really good shape for surgery. I didn't stuff myself on "last meals" but did enjoy some favorite foods that I wouldn't get to have for a while or ever. I was glad I had started eating healthier though...Feel free to ask more questions.
