Check out Dr Ramos Kelly! Google, he has a great informative website :-) I'm scheduled with him in April - he's really nice, takes the time to talk to you on the phone & go over your medical history (if you fill it out on his website) & if you schedule with him he adds you to his Facebook secret support group (nearly 600 former / future patients). I haven't found someone who's had a bad experience with him.

Hello Torn ;)) I am considering Dr. Kelly as well for April surgery I'm a little bit nervous but wanted to find out from you who you've been talking with and what he's charging for your surgery I kind of would like to also know a little bit more for about how you came to decide on him

I almost went with him but then I found Dr Carlos Altimitano. He's very similar and cheaper. He offers free Skype consults, chats with everyone via FB when you have questions or concerns and comes highly recommended. I'm so happy with my choice.

I had surgery with Dr. Garcia in October 2013 and a great experience...so good, in fact that when my 25 yr old son decided on the surgery I entrusted his care to Dr Garcia. He had surgery on Thursday and is doing unbelievably well. I accompanied him as his support person and am so impressed with the care he received. I was much more aware of all aspects of care as an observer (since I wasn't doped up on painkillers). I would highly recommend him!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
