Anyone who did surgery in TJ willing to take a call?



Recommended Posts

I'm just looking for some conversation about what to expect, before and after. Preferably someone who went to TJ and if so had the Dr Jesus Lopez?

I didn't have my surgery with Jesus Lopez, but I'd be happy to try to answer what questions I can. I'm not home right now (still at work), but I'd be able to chat later tonight. You can send me a personal message with your contact info and when you are free if you want.

TJ is amazing. What to expect? Are you flying in? They will likely pic you up from the air port, take you to the hotel, go over a few things with you, take you to the hospital, do some blood work, pic you up the next morning early for surgery, take you to the hospital, make you put on these annoying panty hose things, give you a shot to put you out, then you'll wake up with it done.

That's how simple it is.

I can talk to you. I live in BC. PM me if you want my number. I used Elias Ortiz and was very happy.

      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.
