Hi everyone. :) my name is Jessica and I'm new here. I am scheduled with Dr. Kelly @ OCC/Florence on may 31st. Super excited! Just wondering if anyone has used Dr. Kelly or will be around the same time as me?

Thanks!

There's a hand full of Dr. Ramos Kelly patients around these days. :) I am 13.5 weeks post op now and still think my experience with him was top notch. I really loved the care I got at florence Oasis and while I'm only 75lbs down, I'm 75-freaking-pounds-down! LOL :D I hope your experience is fantastic!

My husband is having surgery with Dr. Kelly June 1st, but at Mi Doctor. I had surgery with him last August and had a great experience.

I'm with Fawn! I used to get out of bed because of Breakfast.

 

Tomorrow is 3 weeks, 33lbs :D

 

I love Lora (I highly suggest you schedule with his office directly), Cecy and Dr Kelly! And his surgical team!

 

I feel really good :)

Dr. Kelly did my surgery on Monday past, May 13 at Florence Hospital. No problems with Dr. Kelly but found the nursing staff less than reliable. I am back home as of today with severe allergy all over my stomach. None of the nurses seemed concerned and Dr. Kelly never saw it. I am now getting ready to head to my own family doctor to find out what it is. I think I might have had an allergy to the tape they used to cover the incisions. Has anyone else had this problem?

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
