Dr. Gerald Kirshenbaum - All should look into Dr. Kirshenbaum in Colorado



Recommended Posts

I just got back from Colorado yesterday. Dr. Kirshenbaum did my lap band on Wednesday August 1st. He is tops in my book. He is so compassionate. His price is so low because he wanted to be competitive with the price in Mexico. It is affordable and worth any of you searching for a doctor and a place to have the surgery done. The Crown Pointe Hospital in Parker CO. is like brand new. I would rate it a 10 on a scale of 1-10. The nurses and the care I recieved while I was there is not to be compared with ones I have even worked in as a nurse. The cost is $9950.00 for everything. That even includes the price for returning for your fills. Dr. Kirshenbaum explained everything to me and made me feel comfortable about my concerns. He will explain to you why his cost is so low. He is not in it to make money for himself. He loves doing this to help people that really need the help. I don't know how I could trust any other doctor as I trusted him. He has done (a bunch) of lap bands. I do not remember the number he told me. He was also the first surgeon in Colorado to do laproscopic surgery. He just loves doing it. He gave me his cell phone number and told me to call him at any hour of the day or night if I needed him. He will even be glad to talk to your doctor where ever you live. He will do anything he can to help you. He called me on his own on Thursday just to check on me. My experience there was excellent and I would recommend him to anyone. Just check it out before you go to Mexico or anywhere else.

If anyone has any questions regarding Dr. Kirshenbaum don't hesitate to contact me.

Marty, I agree with you. Besides that they get to see and experience beautiful Colorado. :)

I am to be banded by Dr. Kirshenbaum in October and I am sooo looking forward to it.. It is so uplifting to hear such great things about the Dr. you choose to do your surgery. Thanks for the great reference.

Be well and take care,

Bobbie

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
