Illinois sleevers

I was wondering if there was anyone from Chicago who has been sleeved. And if so which doctor did you see?

12/23/2013 I was sleeved at Loyola University Medical Center by Dr. Bipan Chand. Dr. Chand developed the bariatric program for the Cleveland Clinic. Loyola nabbed him away and since then he has developed the bariatric program for Loyola. He also teaches bariatric, laparoscopic and robotic surgery there.

I have lost 66 of 100 pounds of my first goal, but since I am carrying it well, the bariatric physician scaled my goal back to 155 instead of 135. She said that if I can lose 14 more pounds, she thicks that a panni would take care of another 15. That would put me at 140. My original goal was 135.

I sailed through surgery and recovery with no complications.
