Question:
Anyone in the N. FL or GA area have a revision? I am desperately

looking for a surgeon who will perform a revision. I am not losing weight after a VBG in 1999. Please help!    — Felicia A. (posted on February 26, 2002)

I had my original open RNY in Atlanta , developed a staple line disruption complicated by marginal ulcer that had perforated and was revised , again in Atlanta. The first surgery was Dec 2000 and the first revision was April 2001. I just had my second revision to repair an atonic pouch.. meaning that the pouch had no muscle tone or peristalsis to move food out of the pouch.. but I chose to fly across the country to Washington state to have this surgery with the best surgeon in the country.. If you want more info, go to my profile page and email me direct. Hugs

Dr. J.K. Champion in Atlanta is internationally renowned for his work in lap WLS and does revisions. His web site is www.drchampion.com and his office number is (770)425-5525. Good luck!
