  1. I feel pretty good, little weak, but I know I am not getting enough protein just can tolerate the protein, did find some skinny cow choc milk that has 11 protein that is great. I am starving, did you go the full 2 weeks without any soft or mushy foods? I will be back at work Thursday or Friday I will come see you.

    If you know anybody in the medical field ask questions, google, call arkansas medical board, search pulaski county civil suits on the county clerks website. Do some research on whomever you choose. This board opened my eyes.

    Research and research some more, ask all your friends, neighbors, co-workers ect, you might be surprised at what you might find out, just because they are a surgeon doesn't mean they are capable. Before you put yourself in someone elses hands for an elective procedure be 100% certain. Again i cannot stress enough to check-check and check some more.

    I would be very interested in some more facts myself about the ousted doctor!
  7. I went to the Dr for a seminar on June 18th at which time I set up an appointment with the psycholigist in his office the next day followed by an appointment with the Dr the same day and scheduled my surgery before I left the office. I am scheduled for 7am July 28th. I have Federal BCBS which does not require any pre auth since by BMI is at 40. The surgery center has already called me with my co-pay and it looks like my cost will only be about $1000 out of pocket including the 1st yr of fills. The Dr. has a wonderful personality and all his staff, even the psychologist gives you their cell number. I think I am in wonderful hands. Will keep you informed after surgery. I started my 2wk diet today, not sure if I can handle the proetin shakes but will definitly go low fat no carb for the next 2 weeks.

    I am going to Dr. Luttrell and am so far very pleased with him and his staff. I have Federal BCBS and also work in a hospital but I don't know anybody who has had the surgery. All his staff worked quickly to get me scheduled, all told it took about 3 days. I am really glad to read all these posts from Arkansas. I also heard Dr. Baker was good.
