Any Suggestions For A Surgeon In Arizona?????



Recommended Posts

I did have a consult with Dr. Simpson because he did Janean Ford's (local news person) band, but he didn't seem very outgoing or reassuring at all. Anyone know of someone who is caring and understanding? Also, could anyone tell me how much the band is in AZ? Thanks for any help on this. :thumbup:

I had my surgery in Richardson, Texas, But I am doing my fill here in Arizona at True Results, They are great!! I love them... Check em out they have a location in Scottsdale... I live here in Arizona, But went to Texas for the surgery through True results.. Not only did my insurance pay for my procedure, But true results paid for me to go to Texas all expences paid... Give them a try they are awesome..

I also went to True Results, and if I had to do it over again I would have gone to Dr. Simpson. He seems much more involved than the TR Surgeon. Once he does the surgery there is one follow up and your left with the Dr. on staff and 2 PA's.

I am having my done in Phoenix at St Lukes by Dr. Hilario Juarez on Friday. He was recommended by my neighbor. You get a lot of training before and after surgery. Good luck

      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.
