Hi everyone(:

well, im kinda new to all this.

refering to the website.

not the whole weight problem bit !

haha.

well, one of my friends told me about this site and thought id gve it a try, seeing as I really didn't know where to start.

I am a student in Seattle, Washington

I've been reading other threads and was really interested in Dr. Gonzalez.

Alot of people seem to know him& trust him on here(:

Im 5'3 and weigh about 250 and im only 19 :|

I would really like for once to go out in public and feel comfortable shopping for clothes, or better yet feel comfortable in my OWN skin.

So, if anyone who was already banded by Dr. Gonzalez can please tell me on how their experience went and if the whole process really worked for you, would be really helpful(:

Thank You. :nervous

Hi Audrey

I had surgery with Dr.G on Sept 14. He is wonderful the care you get is great. They make you feel real comfortable. I would do it again with him if I had to. Good luck with your choice. There is a whole section on him in Doctors and Hospitals.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
