Question:
Seeking those in Middle Georgia ... question about a rumor I heard

Hello everyone. I heard a sad rumor that all GBS surgeries in the middle georgia area are being cancelled. I am post op (3 months) but have some friends considering it. I know it would be heartbreaking to them. Has anyone heard this rumor, if so please give feedback. I will call my surgeon's office tomorrow and get the 411 myself but just curious.    — Happy I.

My surgeon is in the Atlanta area and is one of the original founders of today's laparascopic WLS techniques. He has performed approximately 2000 procedures and is still going strong. Five of us in my family have had WLS with this surgeon, and another family member and two friends are on his current waiting list. I have heard nothing in his large support group network to indicate that this rumor is true. Best wishes!
