Has Anyone Used Dr. Christopher Myers @ Upmc In Greenville, Pa?



Recommended Posts

I have an appointment with Dr. Christopher Myers in Greenville, Pa. on Dec 28, and am scheduled to be banded on Jan 4 at UPMC Horizon. Has anyone used him or know of anyone who has? I have seen him a few times already, went through all my pre-op testing, and have a final appointment to see him on Jan 28. He seems very nice, knowledgable, I like his staff, but have not heard much about him..... good or bad. Was wondering if anyone had him as a surgeon, or knows anyone who has. Thanks

I have not known anyone who has gone to him. I went straight for the big shots through UPMC and went to Magee for mine. Good luck though!

Hi, Im new here :) I was scheduled for the required seminar this afternoon but thanks to this wonderful NWPA weather it was cancelled. I rescheduled for next Wednesday, I am so anxious to start the process!! Did you have a good experience at UPMC Horizon? We're you satisfied with Dr Meyers? I have read positive reviews online but would love to hear your personal experience/opinion!

Dr Meyers is absolutely wonderful! We have a huge support group through his office and in 4 years I’ve never met anyone who had problems or regrets.

He listens. He doesn’t judge. He is kind and … He is thorough. Takes every precaution for before , during and after surgery care.

      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.

      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!
