Hello - I used East Coast Bariatrics - Dr. Joel Sabastein .He is in Daytona Beach. He and his office have been amazing. I was living far from the office at the time and his office was great about sending me to local doctor for some of the pre=op blood work and test or he scheduled multiply appointment so I was not travelling a lot. Now I live close to his office (which is why I went with him - I knew long term he would be closer to me) I have been VERY happy I was banned in Dec 2010. His office also offers monthly supports groups. Very supportive staff and a few on his team have also had different WLS so they exactly what you are going through. Good Luck!!

I live in Jacksonville, FL. Dr. Uchal did my surgery. I would recommend him to anyone. He is located at St. Vincents (either location) with N FL Surgeons. I go to him at St. Vincents Riverside and see his NUT Mica at St. Vincents Southside. She is incredible. Never would have been so successful without them. Feel free to call me 904-251-4219 if you want to talk.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
