Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty

[az062217vsg 40]

Has anyone had revision to a surgical Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy with a non-surgical Endoscopic Sleeve Gastroplasty? If so, what was your experience like? Where did you have it done? Who was your doctor? Cost? Thanks!

I had an ESG but it was NOT a revision to a VSG. In almost 4 months, I have lost 40 pounds with a starting bmi of 30.4. It was done in Cary, NC by Dr. Chris McGowan. Cost: 10k. I recommend talking with him or check out the website to get more info. His practice name is True You weight loss at (919) 696-1109.

Thanks! What was your recovery like? Similar to VSG with different stages of food (liquids, puree, soft foods, all foods)?

Clear liquid day before and 2 days after, liquids until day 14, then puree, etc. Very much like what VSG as far as I can tell.
