Any good Seattle VSG surgeons?

Would love some info on Seattle Docs? Seems like its hard to get a VSG here?

Thanks so much!

Try Dr. OH in Federal Way-St. Francis Hospital

Merrilou

The surgeon that did my attempted RNY also does the VSG - It's Dr. Ross McMahon in Seattle at Swedish. I would have had a VSG with him, but my insurance doesn't cover it so I had to go to Madigan.

However, I don't know if he'll take a patient that was sleeved in Mexico - you'd have to call and ask, can't hurt to ask.

I know both Dr Oh, and Dr Srikanth do the DS, and the sleeve is the first part of that. So, they both do the sleeve, but I don't know if they do it as a stand alone procedure (I suspect they do).

Thanks so much! Appreciate the info! I LOVE my sleeve and a dear friend is also wanting one. Her insurance PAYS!!! WOW! Mine wouldnt touch it so I went to see Dr Alvarez and am so glad I did.

Thanks again!

My surgeon does the sleeve, Dr. Lauter in Bellevue. I had RNY because my insurance does not cover the sleeve. But you might want to call Dr. Lauter.

I went out of state due to costs.  However, they did the sleeve for one of my friends & she was very happy with them.
