Has anybody received their bypass from Dr Voellinger in Charlotte NC? If so what was your experience like? And how successful was your pre/post journey? Thanks in advance

Hi. I had my surgery in Charlotte on Nov. 11. I believe Dr. Voellinger is part of the same group as my surgeon. It's called Carolina's Weight Loss Surgery. Dr. Roc Bauman did my bypass at CMC Northeast. Where does your doctor do his surgery? If I'm correct he either does his at CMC University or downtown at Mercy Hospital.

The pre-op experience was very complete and and staff was wonderful. I've heard that all the surgeons in this group are excellent.

My surgery went well, with no complications. I've saw Dr. Bauman at 1 week and 4 weeks post op. I saw the nutritionist at 2 weeks out. I will meet with the nutritionist once a month for a full year. I'll see Dr. Bauman at 3,6,9 and 12 months.

As far as my success, so far so good....... I've lost 34lbs so far. I feel really good with the exception of some Constipation. I'm now adding new foods everyday or so, and am tolerating them well.

I'd love to hear from you.

Good luck.

I'm so appreciative of your information, I'm still at the very beginning of this process and haven't even met with him yet.. My appointment with him isn't until February 6th ???? I'd really love to get in sooner but he's booked.. I'm taking that as a good sign lol.. I'll have to check your guy out and see if maybe I could get in sooner.. One convenience is I could do the seminar online.. I have a busy schedule with a 4yr old son and running my small salon business.. So that was super nice to just be able to make an appointment with him.. Does your doc have online seminar?

I really don't know if he has on online seminar. I do know that Bauman only does his surgery at CMC Northeast in Concord. I'm glad i went there. That hospital is amazing. Beats CMC in Charlotte hands down. My guy probably is booked way out too. I've heard that your guy and mine are the two best in the practice. Bauman does the procedure a little differently, and is the only one that does it his way. My understanding is that he has a patent on his technique and the other docs aren't able to use it yet. Private message me if you want more details.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
