I had sleeve done January 3rd in Tijuana with Dr Ramos Kelly at Angeles. I can't say enough wonderful things about both doctor and hospital. Dr Kelly is confident, skilled, and highly respected at the hospital. Angeles hospital is extremely clean, efficiently run, and I have never been treated as kindly as I was by the nurses & faretakers at Angeles. You simply cannot go wrong with these choices.

My surgeon was Dr. Steve Webb in Jacksonville, Florida. Surgery was done at Memorial Hosptial Jacksonville, a bariatric center of excellence. I was approved for a one night post op stay. I would highly recommend Dr. Webb. Great bedside manner, very calm and reassuring.

My surgeon was Dr. Benjamin Schneider at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. He is amazing. Kind, great listener, better explainer (is that a word?), does hundreds of procedures a year. Oh, and he teaches them at Harvard Medical School. Gets no better. Love him to BITS!

Hello everyone, my name is Tammy. I was sleeved 2 March 2015 in the General Leonard Wood Army Community Hospital by Dr. Oscar Chan. Dr. Chan is straight forward and does not have a very good bedside manner and is on his own time, but he is an excellent surgeon. I was in the hospital 2 nights. The nursing staff was also on the lacking side pretty much in attentive. I also had to know my own dietary restrictions and call down to the kitchen to order my own meals. HW 239 SW 216 CW 216.

My surgery was done on March 11, 2015 by Dr. Carlos Juarez from California Bariatrics at Clovis Community Medical Center. Due to nausea I was kept an extra day until I could tolerate fluids by mouth. I feel almost no pain and gas pain was almost non-existent. The hospital kitchen has special diets that automatically send the appropriate selections based on individual dietary needs ordered by the surgeon. Clovis Community has a wonderful staff and private rooms. I felt at home and slept well there.

My surgeon is Dr Maleckas, had my surgery in Lithuania, at Nordbariatric clinic. I'd say overall it was a positive experience :)

      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.

        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!
