Guest guest Posted June 16, 2001 Report Share Posted June 16, 2001 FYI..........Sure wish people would not comment on " whether or not the surgeon even knows how to do the DS without " without any knowledge..... 1----Read each Doctors Information/Bio on the DS site....very informative 2----Check them out professionally.....licensing agencies, state boards,,,,,etc (Do we have links on how to do this on the DS Site ??? Might be helpful.) 3-----Talk to their ACTUAL PATIENTS....or people who know their patients and can connect you. 4----e-mail them...talk to them....consult with them....and research, research, research ! Here is a tidbit.... DS Dr.s: Dr. Keshishian, Dr. Lutrzykowski, Dr. Ren, and Dr. are the only DS Doctors who actually where trained in their residency to do this surgery. Long term 5+ years. Most other bariatric doctors go to another surgeon's surgery for a day or two maybe a week or two and then they go back and start on patients. Would be great if we could really try not to give out bad advice and insult Doctors we havent even researched on the DS Site.....(Dr. Lutrzykowski...and NO...HE IS NOT MY Doctor...just hate that misinformation is given out here....He does know what a DS is !!!!)...... Also.....don't dish on Joe Frost ....he has helped and responded to more people here than any of us I think.... sigh...... BEST OF LUCK Pre-OPS....DO YOUR HOMEWORK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
