I'm using Dr. Redmann. Don't know if he is the best or not, but I've heard nothing but good things about him. He performed my sister n laws gastric bypass and she has done incredibly well. He's near N.O.

HOW DO I FIND THE BEST SURGEON FOR MY VSG IN LOUISIANA?

Im in Pineville La. Theres a few in the area that do the VSG. I will be having a revision from lapband to VSG and almost all the doctors I spoke to wanted to do it in 2 surgeries, I decided to go with a very experience Dr. in Mexico, I would have never considered going to Mexico but once I did the research I decided it was best for me. Dont rule it out until you have looked into it.

I live in the Baton Rouge area. My surgeon is Drake Bellanger. I've had several doctors tell me he's the best. I've also been told by other medical professionals that surgeons come from all over the world to learn from him. He operates at Woman's Hospital in Baton Rouge and St. Elizabeth in Gonzales. I went to Woman's.

      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.
