Dr Orris - WLI Arizona



Recommended Posts

I do not know why it took me 10 plus years to get it together and have surgery. I spent absurd amounts of dollars on dieting plans, pills, meetings, new fad diets and everything in between. I am sure my waiting had to do with having the right Dr and the right staff. It was definatley a blessing to have the WLIAz in my neighborhood when my aha moment occured. My journey started in Aug of last year and I am happy with my progression. I got rid of 27 lbs so far and have no intention of ever finding it again.

Dr Orris and his staff have what it takes to help me through this healthy change and I am so glad they are here for my journey.

Hello! Dr. Orris is doing my surgery too! I am still in process just completed my psych eval and ultrasound. I'm in 2nd month of my 6th month diet with pcp. I've only met him once so I'm hoping once I am done with my pcp, i'll get to know him better, but my experience with WLIA has been great! I can't wait to be banded!!

Hi, Newbie. I'm a Newbie, too. I just started my process as well. My surgeon is Dr. DeBarros. I had to reschedule my EGD and don't know yet when it'll be, but I would love to chat with you so we can head down this path together and share stories, concerns, whatever...if you're interested. In the meantime, all the best to you!

Hi, Jourdyn. I just started my process as well. My surgeon is Dr. DeBarros. I'm in my 2nd month as well for my 6-month diet with my PCP. I had to reschedule by EGD and don't know yet when it'll be, but I would love to chat with you so we can head down this path together and share stories, concerns, whatever...if you're interested.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
