i had my surgery 8/07 by dr. shayani from dayone. dr. shayani left dayone and i've seen dr. woodard once. i would strongly recommend trying to find another co. instead of dayone. their customer service is non-existant as well as any "support group". between the dr. schedules that are impossible to work with if you work and have a hard time taking time off work for fills, and their total disregard for taking care of their patients that had their surgeries with dr. shayani, i would stay away from them. i have to go through the hastle now of finding another dr. at the seminar they give you the impression of being there for their patients, but that is not at all true, find another dr. or you'll be left out to dry also.

Dr Shayani did my surgery at Dayone Health in Aug 07, also. He did leave their facility, but I continued to see him for follow-up thru his own practice. He is the BEST Dr ever!

I'm having my surgery done by Dr. Woodard on December 16th. So far I have no complaints about his office. I'll let you know how the surgery goes and what happens after.

Dr. Woodward did my surgery in March of this year. He is just wonderful! His whole staff is very helpful, I am particularly fond of his nurse, Kathy. Every time I go in for a fill/check-up, she always takes time to chat with me about whatever is on my mind. Before my actual surgery date, she would talk to me every time I called with a question and still does the same today. I have heard no complaints about his office and would totally recommend him to anyone.

Youre in good hands w/Woodard. He is well liked/respected family man who is one of the most popular gen surgeons in the area. I am a nurse at the hospital he works. He is very kind to staff...that is a good sign. Good luck to you

      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.
