Hi I had surgery on 3/15/07 with Dr. Kwon's associate Dr. Vinces. I think Tristate Baraiatrics is the absolute best from beginning through aftercare. I am only 8 weeks out and already have 8.5 cc in my band and I am feeling restriction and losing weight. Others wait months to get this far. They have done 800+ bands and have a wonderful program. Please check them further if you are in the Port Jervis area. They also have offices in Middletown and Poughkeepsie. I am a RN and researched this for five years before finding Tristate Bariatrics and deciding to go for it--so glad I did. Good Luck!!! Carol

      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.
