Recommendations for surgeons in Massachusetts



Recommended Posts

Hi -

Does anyone have recommendations for surgeons in Massachusetts, somewhere near Boston? If not, are there any surgeons I should avoid? MANY thanks.

Lahey Clinic in Burlington MA has been givien the Bariatic Center of Excellence Designation from the American College of Surgeons...only 5% of hospitals have this. They also have a 0% mortality rate. My Dr there is Demitri Neponashy.

SallyTally-

I am having my lapband surgery in Juarez, Mexico, however, my after care doctor is in Norwood, MA and his name is Dr.Glasgow. He and his son run a very successful practice. You can check their web-site at www.massweightloss.com

I can't tell you how amazing they have been to deal with and both Dr. Glasgow and his son Adam (also a surgeon), get rave reviews both on this web-site and through other clients. Give them a call!!! :laugh:

Sally:

Had my surgery with Dr. Adam Glasgow. He's a great surgeon with his practice dedicated to LapBand patients exclusively now. Here's a link to his website. www.massweightloss.com

Dr. Adam is in practice with his Dad, Dr. Arthur. I cannot say enough good things about them. Check out the thread on Massachusetts surgeons in Norwood and you'll see what people have said about these two great doctors.

Best wishes to you. I love my band and my new flat tummy!

Sue

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
