:) :) :bananajump:

Dr. Spivak is very thorough and answers all of your questions. He even has a couple of patients that have lost weight with the band come to the seminar to answer questions. I recommend him.

Dr. Spivak is doing my surgery on March 13. He even let me schedule before he had the money in his hand.

Sister, I have not read a single negative report about this man.

He was running late the day of my consult, and he also had a seminar scheduled. He came in and sat with me, patiently answering ALL of my questions, and even played with my 3 year old daughter for a minute. We had a nice little visit.

When I left the office, there were about 15-20 people waiting for the seminar to start, it was scheduled to start at 1 pm, it was about 1:20 or so when we left. He sat patiently through all of my questions, knowing that he had 15-20 potention patients(customers) waiting on him. The seminar was late starting due to the time he spent with ME! At no time did I feel rushed, or unwelcomed. He is a genuine, kind man. And I have only met him this one time!

Good luck on your adventure, maybe all of us on here who post regular will meet up for a fill at the surgery center!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
