Hi WillinAtlanta! I just had mine (5/3) with Dr. Hart at Emory JC! I live in Marietta, you?

I think you will find the experience to be awesome!

Hey journeybegins05032013! I live intown in north Druid hills. I've only heard great things about Dr. Hart. I checked both doctors out but ultimately felt more comfortable with Dr. Johnson. How are you doing post op?

That's great (the losing part.) Moving is a rough time for everyone and I guess I'll have fun with that in a few months, myself.

Anyone convert from a lapband to a sleeve? I am in stone mountain and wanting to get in to see dr. Hart. How long does it take to get scheduled?

I didn't convert from a lapband...but have you been to one of the classes at emory jc that dr Johnson and dr hart have? After I went, I got a call like 2 days later to schedule an appointment.

I started this process quite a few times in the past, but I can honestly say that both dr Johnson and dr hart care and they want people to physically be at their best in the end. It's been a pleasure dealing with both of them.

      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?
