Dr. William Gibson in Memphis, TN



Recommended Posts

What a wonderful doctor. He is a partner of Dr. Virgina McGrath-Weaver (who is also wonderful but totally booked for months and months). He did a fabulous job on surgery day spoke to me two times post op and my DH twice. He is very professional and is super nice too. He was very good at explaining things to my DH and myself and was impressed with my knowledge of the procedure (thanks lapbandtalk.com and people on here!). He even "reused" two of my gallbladder surgery scars and they look better at two weeks post surgery than they did one year after my gall bladder removal.

I will know more about his fill technique and how agressive (or not) he is with fills on Dec. 2. I am loving that I will possibly be getting a fill only one month post surgery.

I would highly recommend him to anyone. If you were origionally going to see Dr. McGrath-Weaver and liked her but didn't want to wait 3-4 months to schedule surgery, make an appointment with Dr. William Gibson and see if you don't like him too. I had my surgery date scheduled for just 3 weeks after my initial visit with him and have been super satisfied so far.

I am down 20 lbs since I started my pre-op on Oct. 14th, 2008! Hope to be under 200 lbs in the next 6+ months.

If you would like to talk to me further regarding Dr. Will Gibson, please feel free to message me.

Hello I am using Dr. Virgina McGrath-Weaver and my surgery date is not until May 19. I have been finish with everything since Feb. But like you said she is booked for months. Well 2 days ago someone from her office called me to see if I wanted to use this other Doctor, Dr. William Gibson but I don't know anything about him but I don't know anything about her. I don't meet her for the first time until March 18. I don't know what to do. Is he in the same office. Anything you can tell me would be a great help Thanks

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
