i had my initial consultation with Dr Kim today. has anyone had surgery with him?

Dr. Kim did by band removal in June and I was sleeved by him last week. I think he's very thorough, wouldn't do my sleeve when he found erosion with my band, but he isn't the kind of doctor that will coddle you. He's pretty much strictly business. I will say that I do think his post-op diet is THE most restrictive I've heard of. And I don't think there's a chance I will be able to make it 6 weeks on just liquids. Ugh!

My surgery with Dr. Kim is 9/23.

After my band removal he did come to my room and talk with me and my DH. When I was sleeved I only saw him before they took me back. My personal opinion was that I was using him for his surgical skills and not his bedside manner. I have no regrets picking him as my surgeon but I don't know that we would be bffs or anything. Lol!
