I went through MedicalFinancing.com and chose Dr Alvarez. By all means avoid No Patient Left Behind. SCAMMY.

I've been reading any info I can find on Dr. Alvarez. I really like everything I've read about him, but I'm also scared that it could all be a crazy hoax (only b/c that's my luck w/things!) Is there anything you've read about him that worried you? And how hard was it to get financed? Thanks so much for the help!

One more thing, I'd LOVE to hear how everything goes for you after the surgery:) Good Luck!! You'll do great!

I am post op. everything went perfectly. Dr A runs a great program... I'd go to him again and again. I wish he was my PCP!

It was hard for me to get financed because I don't have the best credit. Endobariatrics only works with one finance co and the finance price is higher than the cash price. Cash is 8700, finance is 9100. Contact Susan, his coordinator. She is also sleeved so she has the inside scoop on what will happen during your surgery.

A blurb from my blog "By reading on a message board, I found out about lendingclub.com . I applied Friday and 5 days in I'm funded 46.67%. My ID is Member_1512427 in case you decide to go that route. I applied for $6000 and at a B4 credit rating, my interest is 13.11% for a 36 month loan. The payments will be $202.xx the price of a used car. It is peer to peer lending and individual investors contribute to the loan."

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
