Guest guest Posted August 7, 2001 Report Share Posted August 7, 2001 Well I got to meet my surgeon yesterday FINALLY! He is recommending an RNY for me because of my age. He says that he generally recommends the DS only for older patients (40's and up) since he doesn't feel they have enough data on DS patients in the long run (past 20 years). He does not feel I am a candidate for the AGB and he didn't seem to like the VGB too much. He was very straight forward and I liked that. His nurse made up the more " human " part of their team, as he was very prooofessional. That certainly is not a bad thing though. I guess I've just gotten used to my PCM--he's a very personable guy; likes to joke a lot! Anyway, all in all I consider my consult to be a good experience! in FL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
