Hi Everyone!

I'm half way through my required classes at Kaiser and received a phone call to meet the surgeon. For some reason, they are fast tracking me. Yikes! Not sure if I"m ready for this. Anyway, they have assigned me to Dr. Suh in Corona. Has anyone worked with him? If so, what is his pre-op diet like? I was hoping to choose a specific doctor in San Diego, for he (from what I've been told) is so realistic about your diet after the surgery.

Anyway, would love to know your experiences with Dr. Suh.

Thanks!

I can't speak to his pre-op diet, but my friend had him a few years ago and raves about him. Lots of people on here do, too. I finished my Options classes in March and I wanted to go to San Diego as well because I have family there, but they're booked up 4-6 months out. I got referred to a new place that they're contracting with, the Le Port Medical Group in Fountain Valley. Good luck with everything. I wish they had fast-tracked me!

Your pre op diet with Dr Suh is about 1 week long. He's very particular about what foods to eat afterwards. When you see him he will give you a blue folder with all your instructions.

      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.
