Dr. Srinivasa Gorjala - Dr. Srinivasa Gorjala



Recommended Posts

This is the doctor I've chosen.

He seems like he really knows what he's talking about and speaks to his patients like they are real people.

He says that obesity is a disease and should be treated as such.

After my seminar, for the first time, I actually felt like I had hope.

Has anyone else had experience with Dr. Gorjala?

Hey!

It's nice to see another patient of Dr. Gorjala's! Don't you just love them!

I am really happy with him and his entire staff. As of today, including my pre-op diet, I've lost 27 lbs. I got my first fill on 10/21, so I hope to continue losing at a good pace.

We also started a GA Lapbanders thread if you want to come over there:

Did you have surgery and how are you now? Dr. Gorjala did my surgery and I think the whole staff is great.

I went to Dr. Gorjala's seminar too. He seems very strict but that's good. I was impressed that he spoke at the seminar himself. Another place I went I wasn't going to even meet the surgeon until right before surgery.

Anyway, how do I get to the Georgia band forum? The link did not work for me. Thanks!

It's been a while since I've posted. My life has changed so much since I had my surgery.

I am currently down to 172 lbs! I no longer have to shop in the plus size department, I have more energy, came off of all medications and have a much better social life.

Before, I was just too embarrassed to go out in public or hang around with my old friends and I was so tired all the time.

Dr. Gorjala's office has definitely been a positive influence on my entire life.

It took me a minute to find it again, but see if this link works:

I am going to his seminar on Oct 27th. I hope to have my surgery within a month. I will be self pay so that should cut out a lot of the red tape. My BMI is 32.6 and I have high blood pressure. FDA has approved it but the my insurance company has not changed the criteria as of yet and it may take years.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
