Dr. Matthew Metz - Love my Dr. Metz



Recommended Posts

I had surgery with Dr Metz on March 21, 2011. My husband went with me to pre-op visits and agreed that he was a good doc that we were comfortable with. He was awesome about answering my husbands questions and concerns about the surgery. Also, he helped me choose what surgery to have by informing me of all of the pros and cons about weight loss surgery. His office staff is great! They are always friendly and courteous. I would recommend him to anyone looking to have weight loss surgery.

Can anyone explain what Dr. Metz's procedure is for fills? Does he use ultra sound, etc.?

Thanks!

Hey, long time no talk. How the heck are ya doing?? He (or rather his NP, Alison......who is absolutely wonderful) does not use ultrasound or anything. She is very good at doing fills. I NEVER had any problems with her, or the Dr for that matter.

It has been a looong time. How are you doing? I haven't been on here in ages. I see that you have been having trouble, I hope things are looking up. Me, not too bad, been a busy summer with one daughter in a nasty divorce, and two others getting married within 2 weeks of each other. I made it thru all three, now maybe it will settle down a bit. Since receiving my letter informing of Kirshenbaum's retirement, I thought I should see what is said about Dr. Metz. I have heard and read a lot of good things about him. So when they do a fill, do they do the trick of adding, drinking, and then either adding or removing more, all with one needle, I have heard that some Dr.'s will add a small amount and not have you drink anything. Anyway I go tomorrow for my last visit with Tom and will then be transferring to Dr. Metz.

I will keep better in touch with you....Thanks for the advice.

      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!
