Question:
Is there a surgeon in North Carolina that does the duodenal switch surgery?

I would appreciate your knowledge of any surgeons that do duodenal switch surgery in North Carolina or the surrounding areas. I have decided that this would be the best surgery for me. Everyone here goes to Dr. Rutledge and he only does a mini bypass. Can anyone help me?    — seadreamer13 (posted on August 7, 2000)

Hi Nedra, People often travel far and wide to get the benefits of the Duodenal Switch procedure.. I don't think there are any DS doctors in North Carolina, but for the complete list of DS surgeons go to <a href="http://www.duodenalswitch.com/Surgeons/surgeons.html">DS Surgeons</a> Hope this helps! Take care.. <a href="http://www.mywls.com">myWLS.com</a>

I would like to inform anyone out there who is looking for a surgeon who does duodenal switch surgery in North Carolina, that Dr. Eduardo Gonzales in Winston-Salem is one. That's the surgery I am scheduled to have on March 08, 2001. I like him very much and he has trained with some of the best surgeons in North Carolina, but I won't be able to give anyone a personal recommendation until I have my surgery and see how things turn out. His number is (336) 659-8483. Good Luck!
