ARE THERE ANY GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY CENTER'S IN LOUISIANA/TEXAS/MISSISSIPPI?



Recommended Posts

If so what is their name and website so I could check them out. And what is the cost if you are paying through self pay? I have no insurance. Do they have payment plan's? Even in Texas and Mississippi

?

I can recommend Dr Borland in New Iberia. He does self pay patients. He only accepts low risk patients and does the surgery as out patient.

In Lafayette LA Lafayette General has a bariatric team. I'm going with Dr. Eschete. You go to a seminar they have twice a month and go from there. They have weekly support groups for pre and post op patients.

I am using Dr Scott Stowers at My Bariatric Solutions in Decatu Tx. They have a great website and they will do phone consults for out of town patients.

Dr Drake Bellinger is phenomenal. He is out of Baton Rouge he has done four of my family members as well as my surgery with no complications. He has surgery centers in Baton Rouge, Hammond and Gonzalez. I had my surgery at st. Elizabeth Hospital in Gonzales. I've never been treated so well in a hospital. I would highly recommend them and their staff as well as Dr Bellinger.

I highly recommend Dr. King in Oxford, MS (http://www.oxfordbariatric.com/). He does offer financing, although I do not know any details since I was covered under my insurance.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
