Questions for patients of Dr. Nguyen at UCDMC

I am embarrassed to ask this - but I am unsure if I am proximal or distal. I am 2.5 years out and had RNY surgery with Dr. Ninh Nguyen at UCDMC- any of you who used Dr. Nguyen, can you tell me if you are proximal or distal? I thought he basically did just the proximal. Roughly how much intestine does he bypass? I don't want to go visit him just to ask this information.
