Did anyone have Dr Srinivasian for their surgeon and if so what was your experience.

I am getting sleeved at Emory Midtown too, but by Dr. Davis. I just wanted to wish you much luck and a speedy recovery. Do you have a date?

No. I am waiting for my insurance to approve the surgery. Tracy said it takes Emory 5 days for it to go through their precerification process than it will go to my insurance company. When did you get your preop date? Was it after your last supervised diet appointment? I don't even have a preop date. Did your insurance already approve your surgery?

Hi,

I know someone whose surgery was done by Dr. Srinivasian. She said she really liked her and recommended her to me. I have my first appointment at Emory Midtown on November 2 but with Dr. Williams.

Dr. Williams handles the monthly supervised diet check ins. You will be able to talk to your surgeon like Dr. Srinivasian further along in the process.

Hello,I got my pre-op date after the insurance approved me then after pre-op I will have to schedule another appointment with Dr.S and she will give me the surgery date.

      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.

      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.
