I am using Dr Kim for my revision. 4 weeks from today! Eeekkk! I've heard nothing but great things about Dr Kim and his staff. My experience with them has been great so far!

I am so glad I saw your post. I am using Dr. Kim too. I was thinking of moving over to Dr. Nicholson but he didn't have any early appointments and I don't want to wait. I have my surgery June 6th and I am very nervous!

[Staci27 31]

Why are you wanted to change over to Dr. Nicholson. Has your experience been unsatisfying. I have my surgery scheduled for 28 May. I am very nervous too..

[shielanotsheila 15]

My experience hasn't been unsatisfying. His staff has been great. I was thinking of switching because Dr. Kim is far from where I live. I live in Frisco. I went to Dr. Kim because he was close to work and it was easy to get to appointments from work. I didn't realize the surgery would be at Wise. I thought it would be at Baylor at Trophy Club. Since it is at Wise, I thought it would be a long drive for my husband. Also, I read a couple of negative reviews about him not caring if there are complications. I also read that Dr. Nick does a leak test right after surgery to make sure everything went well. Guess I am a little nervous because I had a bad experience with my lapbad. I am nervous that if there are complications that Dr. Kim won't be there for me. Hopefully the negative reviews are wrong. What is your opinion of Dr. Kim?

[Staci27 31]

Well, just FYI.. I am right up to surgery.. and I just finished with my Educational Class and History & Physical, which were the beginning of this week. We have a leak test the follow day of surgery. They do a leak test which you swallow the barium, kinda of like an Upper GI. To see if there is a leak. My surgery is at Baylor Medical Center at Trophy Club, Dr. Holden is the one acutally doing my surgery. I have only met Dr. Kim once, and that was at my initial eval, which was back in December. I have received nothing but a great experience with him, I just haven't read any reviews on Dr. Kim and the procedure from other patience. Where did you get that information, so maybe I can read up.. Thanks!

[shielanotsheila 15]

Thanks for the info! I had googled dr. Kim reviews. I don't remember the exact site.

[Staci27 31]

I googled some today and there was some bad reviews and some excellent ones.. I think it depend s ob the patient.. well I wish you the best of luck..

[shielanotsheila 15]

Exactly. That is why I was torn. Hopefully everything will work out. Good luck to you! Keep me posted as to how things go.

I used dr kim he is a great surgeon, but to me and my family he liked bedside manner. I only got to meet him once and that was on the day I first decided to have surgery. He was there to make sure I had chose the right surgeon. As for aftercare I have only gone to the one week follow up. I did not see him again after surgery at the hospital or that day in his office. I had no complications with the surgery so far. I believe its your choice in what you are expecting from the surgeon as in bedside manner or aftercare. I was sleeved on 12/4/12. He nor his staff has even once tried to get a hold of me, to see how things are going and that I am doing ok. This is just my opinion.
