Any St. Louis/Metro Area Sleevers out there?

[lrogoz 11]

Hey MxKitty! I think Dr. Snow is a partner with my Doctor, Dr. Van Wagner. His office is right across from St. Anthony's in South County, and they do have a dietician on staff. I know it's not right by TGS, but it's closer than Festus! Hope that helps!

Dr Snow & Dr Van Wagner no longer share a practice as of Feb 1st. I will call Dr Van Wagner's office though and see if their nutritionist takes outside patients. Thanks so much!!!

Hello! I am new here and am seeing Dr. Snow, also (though I live in the Festus area). Have my 5th out of 6 dietitian appointments on monday before I can be officially approved for the sleeve. I have been seeing the dietitian in Dr. Wagner's office and before the first of the year, visits were free. After the split, I pay $20 copay, but can still see her.

Oh that's fantastic! I did email her earlier today to see if she's accepting new clients since I didn't see her before my revision. Thanks again for sharing Best of luck at your last appointment & on your weight loss journey!

Hi! I'm from the Maryland Heights area. I was sleeved on 6/8/16. My doctor was Chris Eagon. I'm at the 3 week stall. The worst thing that I'm struggling with is Constipation. HELP!

Who is your doctor and where will your surgery be?

Surgery was 1.5 weeks ago. It went fine. It had a few rough Patches but everyday I'm a little better. Purees have helped significantly cut down on feeling queasy all the time. I thought I'd feel listless due to eating so little but nope.
