Mini Gastric Bypass

[Micah87 44]

So, I was on youtube looking through videos because I'm feeling sorry for myself and my progress (I'm about 4 weeks out), and I see a video by a Dr. Rutledge. The video was about failed lapband patients who became mini gastric bypass patients. I was bamboozled so I googled it. Apparently, they kind of make a mini sleeve that bypasses a part of the intestine. Here is a link to a video about it.

Has anyone else heard of it before? Am I just that out of the loop?

I've heard of it but it seemed very experimental.

I have seen those videos. That dr. Makes me nervous.

I was reading on his website and it says they're still trying to get it recognized by insurance companies and everything. And yah, I got a weird vibe from him too. I mean really, removing someone's staples in front of a whole group of people. Doesn't seem very professional to me.
