How was your expeirence with him? Im Considering him for my surgeon, I really liked his seminar and I went in for a consultantion. He just dosnt have a support group so I can speak to his patients. Thank you in advance for your answers.

He has a support group... He leads one every other month at mountain view and then theres another one every month at another hospital...I personally love him! Lol, I started with another center and just never felt comfortable. With Dr Hanna I saw him every time I went into the office. He's funny, nice, understanding, strict, everything you want your surgeon to be. The schedule for the support group meetings can be found at www.lasvegasbariatrics.com/pdf/Bariatric_Support_Groups_for_2012.pdf#zoom=95

Thank you guys, I will be attending one soon, never realized he had one, when I went in for my consultation I forgot to ask and I looked on his web site and didn't see one, I'm seeing him at the end of this month, and was gonna ask him, I'm currently on month 3 of my 6 month supervised diet with my PCP. I've attended other surgeons and got the run around and all they wanted to discuss was my out of pocket, when in fact i hadnt even decided to choose their office, but I really like him and his staff, I went in for a consult and he answered all my questions and concerns.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
