Anyone Else Seeing Dr. Garcia In March?



Recommended Posts

Hello sleevers,

I have decided to go with Dr. Garcia through Ready4Achange. Wondering if anyone else is going to be going down in the month of March as well. Trying to do this solo but wouldnt mind a buddy in the same shoes! I would also love to hear from others who have been sleeved by Dr. Garcia

Thanks!

Hi, Chyna86

My surgery is Feb 23 with Dr. Garcia and I am going solo. I will let you know how it went. I may be able to answer some of your questions like, who will watch your computer while you are in surgery. I know I am wondering. All the surgeries I had in the past, I always had family members hold my things until I returned from recovery and then they would leave my stuff in the room.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
