Dr. James Lopes



Recommended Posts

I'm already welling up with tears at the thought of this incredible man. He has completely changed my life. I am so lucky that my mom found him off the internet and that everything has been so amazing. From the first time I met Dr. Lopes in his office I knew that he was the perfect surgeon for me. His knowledge, professionalism, and you can truly feel how much he cares about his patients. This entire process, while there were some hiccups, has really been completely smooth. My mind was completely at ease the morning of surgery and when Dr. Lopes met with my mother and I he turned to my mother and said the absolute sweetest thing "Don't worry I'll take good care of her." I was completely calm as they wheeled me in the OR with his hand on my hip he told me to dream about something good before I was put to sleep. He went through everything with my mom following surgery and thanked her for being so supportive. This man even called that night to talk to me, the night nurse handed me the phone. I was in doing my barium test and in he walked still in scrubs from either coming from or going to surgery. I am so eternally happy with my decision to have Dr. Lopes do my surgery. Not only has he been amazing but so has his office with any help I have needed.

      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.
