Excellent Surgeon In Cincinnati For Fills



Recommended Posts

:clap2: I have my first fill scheduled for Thursday, 4 weeks post op. I had a great surgeon in Mexico, Roberto Rumbaut, MD, but was REALLY lucky to find a surgeon in Cincinnati who is forward thinking about taking "Mexican" patients, who is INTERESTED in the well-being of his patients and is totally missing the GOD complex most surgeons seem afflicted with!! Actually, he posts on here and on Obesityhelp.com and understands the importance of being available to patients when you need him!!! WOW, this is too cool. He charges $300 for the first fill for "Mexican" patients which includes a consult with a dietitian, but only $150 thereafter. I am amazed and really glad. Seems to me the fills are paramount, and that one needs a surgeon who understands the WHOLE picture. HERE we have one!!

Trace Curry, MD :first:

He accepted me as a patient and scheduled me for 4 weeks after surgery. I think God as blessed us with this man. Every since I had decided this was what I wanted to have done then found out I would have to self pay and then go to a foreign country to have it done then was the worry of a good Doctor here for fills and after care. He contacted me through email and I thank God for him. I haven't met him yet but he and his office have been nothing but nice and helpful with me so far. I agree we're lucky to have him.

He really is good: I found him on the Obesity.com website before I went to Monterrey and he agreed to take me on before he announced he would start taking "mexican" patients. I really like him already and so, four weeks to the day from my surgery I'm going for the fill... this Thursday. He has three boys, plays Piano, Mandolin, banjo among other things and plays in a bluegrass band! He's 39. He has a great career ahead of him. I know he does the RNY and other bariatric surgeries, but personally, I think the band is so much safer, he is WISE to really be going that direction. Good luck!!! I had a great experience in Monterrey with dr Rumbaut.

      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.
