Guest guest Posted August 23, 2000 Report Share Posted August 23, 2000 In some of my research, there have been surgeons not doing a lap procedure based of the patients height (not long waisted enough) Has anyone had any experience with this situation.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 2000 Report Share Posted August 23, 2000 Sounds like a lack of surgical skill to me. Dr. R. has operated on a lot of short people. djnzsmom@... wrote: > > In some of my research, there have been surgeons not doing a lap procedure > based of the patients height (not long waisted enough) Has anyone had any > experience with this situation.

My surgery took a little over 30 minutes. Hope this answers your question. suzanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
