Louisiana Sleevers?

I used Southern Specialist in Slidell. It's on the service road between the DMV and Fremeaux. IT WAS WONDERFUL. I loved loved loved my nurses. I wish I could've stayed longer! Lol. I was so comfortable and NEVER had a minute of pain.

Awesome to hear. I was going to go there originally but decided to check into Crescent City Surgical. Nothing bad about either. Just heard more about CSS. Thank you so much for the input. Hope I have the same great recovery you have had so far!

Hi everyone! I'm outside of Baton Rouge in Geismar. I will have my surgery at ochsner in New Orleans with Dr. Wooldrige. My insurance would only pay 100% if I went to a Center of Excellence. I had to choose between Lafayette or New Orleans. I just received my approval letter on Monday. Yeah!!! My husband finds it strange yet funny that I'm excited to have a surgery. He can loose weight at the drop of a dime and doesn't understand. I'm just trying to be patient and awaiting my date.

I also used Southern Surgical and Dr. Redmann was my surgeon and Southern Surgical was a very awesome place!

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
