Italia904 2 Posted April 8, 2018 Hello,Does Any one go to Gainesville, Fl UF Shands - Surgeon is Dr. Friedman? I go there and trying to have the sleeve. He suggested the bypass but I was too scared to do that procedure. I go Wednesday to have my barium swallow and ekg. I am hoping to have surgery in May. Is anyone else see this doctor or getting surgery in May? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
