Anyone have Dr. Lutfi?

Mine was performed by Dr. Linn at Evanston Hospital on December 20.

Do any NorthShore folks have the support group schedule for 2018?

I had my sleeve done by Dr. Lutfi May 2016.

I would really appreciate if anyone who has Dr. lutfi as their surgeon can message me any info about the process and any complications they may have had. Thank you so much.

I’m not a sleever but I am getting RNY in Chicago area, Hoffman Estates. I’m using Dr Rantis at the Kane Center. I’m from Peoria though, just using St Alexis because they are a Center Of Excellence.

It's located on their website, but I know it's the 3rd Thursday of each month at the Skokie Hospital.

[abefroman329 704]

Thanks, yeah, it was on my instructions from my last post-op visit. 1st Monday of the month in Vernon Hills and 3rd Thursday of the month in Skokie. I’ll probably go to the the Skokie meetings since I don’t feel like staying at work till it’s time to go to the meeting in VH.
