Dr. Kelly Is Awesome!

I have the same problem too DdFinn but I did join Trish page she chats with me in private but I don't post pics or other stuff on there. I will eventually probably do it but after I loose the weight!

Your friends can see your likes I think, but that doesn't mean you have to post. But yeah if you're worried then probably don't join it so you don't get outed. LOL

That's a good point. I just "LIKED" Dr. Kelly's Facebook and it showed up on my timeline on facebook, so I had the option of hiding it but I will have to do that all the time I think. I wonder if there is a way to block it from showing up. I'm going to look into that and see.

My operation Debly, is on the 23rd of this month. We just talked to him last week and told him we only had a couple day leeway on when we could have it done because of my niece's job and he got us on the day of our first request otherwise we would have had to wait till fall and I wanted to be healed my summer! I was very impressed with Omar also. I have told my family but not all my friends. I didn't want to hear a bunch of stuff of why was I getting the lapband out and so on and why am I going to Tijuana? ! So if someone asks something I tell them, I won't lie, but I don't have to offer the info to all who know me, at least not yet.

I've been texting Omar this evening and he is pretty awesome and trying hard to straighten things out! I am confirmed for June 14! Very excited!

Debly,

I sent a message to DrKelly to see what the price difference was between him and dr garcia. Who knows, If I get an answer I like...We may be having surgery on the same day with the same dr!

[Finding Myself 146]

Goofy I think they are about the same - Dr. K is $5500 I think...

I'm so glad to hear this. My niece and I will be going to Dr. Kelly on the 23rd of April. We are very excited. I'm having the lapband revision to sleeve and her the sleeve. I'm wondering if I'll be any more sore than normal since I'm having 1/2 hours more work done. Dr. Kelly called and talked a bit and seem like a very nice man. It's nice to hear positive information from his previous patients. Make my nerves a little calmer. You are doing great! Thanks for the info.

I remember having the lapband done and getting the dreaded gas pain in my left shoulder that was so miserable from that but I'll have a heating pad just in case...I was up and shopping and went to the beach there and then a movie on day 3 and 4! Hope it's that good this time too.

Oh good! I am also going to Dr Kelly on April 23 rd. I am going alone..so it's nice to know there will be others there! I am flying on from Michigan on the 22 nd...where are you coming from?

[jeanieG 6]

Yes Dr. Kelly is $5500 although since I am a Lapband revision mine is $6000 and then if I get my endoscopy there its another $400. They have to do that in order to determine if this will take me one operation or two. I'm praying one so I don't have to pay another $5500!

Nursemichele613, we'll be flying in from Washinton State. Oh good, to know someone here will be same day! We have to keep in touch, ok? This forum is great.

Ok, so I feel like this is too good to be true. I've never been hospitalized or had surgery. I can't really say anything bad about Florence Hospital, I'm just glad to be outta there! I felt like a prisoner with no fresh air. I'm at the hotel Lucerna now. It's lovely. I have not experienced any pain, I feel like doing cartwheels right now. I only had nausea the night of my surgery, and a little incision pain. Of course I have a little pain if I bend down, but I seriously don't feel like I've had surgery. The only real pain I ever experienced is when I got my tattoo right over my right rib cage 2 years ago. This surgery was NOTHING compared to that. We checked in to the hotel after my leak test. Had a free popsicle. Then we walked around to the Starbucks and this pharmacy. There is a huge traffic circle in front of the hotel and they drive crazy over here, but we got across. I'm actually leaving a day early. I told Dr. Kelly I feel great, he said he's giving me the green light to travel back to MD tomorrow. I'm so excited to start my new life!!!!

Yelp, sounds like my story and Congrats. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Kelly

My latest with Dr. Kelly.

Well Anna called me to give me the nutrition info, I guess nothing I didn't know, just didn't practice. I'll be flying in on the 22nd and I guess my niece and I will be staying at the hospital the first night. My sister is going with us also mostly for my niece, Kristi, her daughter. Is that where you'll be staying NurseMichele613?What time will you get in? They said they'll take us to the beach and or shopping or what ever we want to do for the day as we get in at 9:30am. I'm excited now but I think a little nervous, not sleeping well the last few nights.

I will be paying another $400 for and endoscopy there. They wanted me to have it here but it cost $4000 here! WHOA!

I also told Omar I wanted to get my teeth clean and Kristi wants a teeth whitening did he know someone and he said they would take us to that also the day before we come home. What nice people.

[Nursemichele613 7]

JeanieG,

So, I guess we will be riding across the border together! My plane arrives around 10:45 from Michigan on the 22 nd. Omar told me someone was arriving a bit earlier than me. I am very excited and looking forward to starting my journey with the sleeve.

So glad I am going to have others with me during this time over there!

I am looking forward to meeting you JeanieG!

I want to use Dr Kelly as well, when it's my turn! Researching him online and I feel comfortable with my decision. All the good on this thread makes me even more comfortable!
