Dr. Weaver, Dr. Metz, Dr. Georgescu



Recommended Posts

I live in Denver, Colorado and I am a former patient of Dr. Kirshenbaum. I have seen several recommendations regarding the Dr.'s who are open to seeing Dr. K's patients. Currently, I have found Dr.'s Metz, Weaver and Georgescu.

Is there anyone that knows the procedures that the above Dr.'s use. Example add Fluid, patient drink Water, and depending on the flow, either add or remove additional fluid.

Thank you. :rolleyes:

I am seeing Dr Metz and am scheduled for Lap-band December 5th. As far as I know, he does all of the bariatric surgeries. So far I am happy with him and his staff. Good luck!

I used Dr. Weaver for my surgery 2 years ago. She doesn't do the fills herself, her NP Vanessa does them. What she does is pull out the Fluid, check it , put it back plus some for a fill. And yes she has you drink Water before you leave. If you have a problem, she will fix it. I honestly don't know if they do floro, you could always ask....good luck.

Dr. John Weaver took over Dr. Kirshenbaum's patient charts. He is soes the fills the same way that Dr. Kirshenbaum did. He charges $125.00 for the initial consultation and $25.00 for the fill. He is having a holiday special right now until February 29th offering the Gastric Band Surgery for the price of $8495.00. His office number is 303-320-7826.

It looks like Dr. Weaver is way down in Lone Tree - I think that's even farther away than Dr. Metz in Parker! I need a fill and will miss being able to get to Dr. K's office in Aurora. I'm lookng for a new doctor up north. Anyone know of fill doctors in Thornton, Northglenn, Brighton?

So if Dr. Weaver took over Dr. K's charts, I'll need to get my records from his office?

      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.
