Will do. Though you might not like it when I do, when my husband finds out where you live, he'll be asking you a million questions. He wants to visit Alaska very badly.

Do you know how come Dr. Valenzuela isn't listed as one of the surgeons on this site? Or Mi hospital? I'm booked there with her and it kind of gives me pause to see that huge list of surgeons and facilities and not see either. TIA

i have no idea why this site doesn't list her but lots do , did lots of research on her before i made my decision and anyone that has done over 2500 surgeries without a hitch is qualified , my doctor here in canada has a partner who can perform these surgeries so he had him look into her and said i'm in great hands , there is lots of testimonials about her out there as well as sites that reference her , here is 1

@@smb0187 I pray that you are having a fast and easy pain free recovery after your gastric sleeve surgery. I'm thinking about getting mine done with Dr Fernando Garcia too. I like that he does the single incision laparoscopic sleeve. Let me know how it all went when you are ready ok? Thank you :)

Everything has gone great so far. No complaints at all. I didn't get the single incision though just so you're aware. His team has been great! I leave to go back home tomorrow.

      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?
