Well even though i have had no replies, both my parents did do the surgery with Dr. Wizman and are very happy.He had good bedside manners and seemed to care, he even gave his personal cell number in case there were any problems after the surgery.

Hello, I have not had my surgery done yet but I am going to Dr Paul Wizman. May I ask what was the results with your parents. Because I heard good things about him

Maybe you can ask Dr Wizman for patient referrals to find out their experience. You also have your parents to speak to about their experience, sounded like you did not know anyone who used him.

I actually just had my surgery by him on May 3rd instead of the 6th. I thought he did a fantastic job. Aside from soreness and the incision sites, I almost feel like I had a fake surgery. The nurses thought I was great at recovering. I also unknowingly had a hiatal hernia that he repaired.

I'm great. I never really felt pain. Of course it hurt but it felt like I did a 1000 situps! Nothing unbearable. I hardly used My morphine drip or any of the pain meds at home. When I did use it it was for a Migraine.< /p>

Im glad to hear you are doing well! Im doing my surgery in a month and i am very excited. My dad did absolutly great. He was very nauseous in the hospital but that only lasted a few days. My mom also did very well, althouhg she had a small complication in her incision site which is now fine. He was very good about answering his phone and keeping in contact.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
