Anyone had their sleeve done by this man? He seems very straight forward but not sure of his experience.

He's great. No he's not one that tekks jokes and he is very straightforward however he knows what he's doing. He sleeved me on 7/8 and I've been home since 7/9. He's the director of bariatric surgery at cmc mercy/carolinas weight management. Great surgeon but can't take a joke.

He has a very quiet understated manor, but he knows his stuff! He is head of Bariatric surgery at Carolinas HealthCare. Carolinas HealthCare is #1 in bariatric surgery in North Carolina, and is nationally recognized.

You will be in good hands with him and with CHC.

He did mine as well. He has a very dry sense of humor that appears very standoffish. However if you listen to why he got into bariatric surgery to begin with, then you'll understand him a whole lot better. I like the fact that he's very straight forward, but that's what I want. If you ask him a question he gives it to you straight. No BS, no maybes. I chose him over the Dr. that did my ex's RNY, who is also supposedly really good, but I didn't like his office staff.

Just as a follow up to my previous post......Dr. Gersin performed my endocsopy/colonoscopy earlier today. He was very compassionate, but he IS very professional....he doesn't really joke around like some others might. He does have a dry sense of humor. He spoke with my husband for a while when I was in the recover room, and DH has the same opinion of him also.

With that said, I was VERY happy with Dr. Gersin and the entire staff that took care of me today. I know I can trust him to do my sleeve.

      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.
