Hi guys. Im from hutchinson set to be sleeved by dr McAllaster at tallgrass in topeka in appox feb of 2013. How is everyone coming along? Ive done nut, psych exam (what an experience that was!) And now waiting on sleep study and results. Then itll be sent to insurance and surgery scheduled. Anyone else get jitters this early on? Lol

I live in Central Ks, Great Bend, and was sleeved by Dr. Hamilton at KC Bariatric in Lenexa. Had my surgery 12-06-12. Everything went well and it has now been about a month. I haven't really had any problems and am getting really excited to start exercising and weight training. I agree that I hate being so far from my Dr. There isn't any local support groups to attend either. I was thinking about checking out the Wichita area and just planning to drive the 2 hrs every month.

I am from Wichita and will be having surgery on January 17th with Dr. Hoehn at KC Bariatric Center.

Congratulations Slim! I know Dr. Hoehn assisted Dr. Hamilton for my surgery. I really like him. Praying your surgery goes well and your recovery is quick as well. Do you know if there are any good support groups in your area?

For me, I did alot of research on this site and another site to help me find the doctor I felt was best for me. In my research I found Dr. Hoehn in Kansas City. He has great reviews. His program is also a Center of Excellence, which made a big difference to me. I have also been able to follow some of his patients on here to see how they are doing. I didn't come across any doctors from the Wichita area when doing my research. Although I know there are some here.
