Guest guest Posted October 24, 2001 Report Share Posted October 24, 2001 Here is a portion of the letter Dr. Hess sends when insurance turns down the DS. ......... " We do not have the dumping syndrome or marginal ulcers and we have low incidence of gastric leaks. This operation is reversible because we saved the pylorus " ......... ........... " We feel it is the best operation with the best long term results, more reversible, with less potential failures and complications than ANY OTHER bariatric sugery. " (italics mine)........ ........... " It is more reversible than any other because it involves only changing the bowel if you need because the pylorus is still in place and the patient will have a normal functioning stomach without dumping syndrome. " .......... Please do not use these statements in any written form without the permission of Dr. Hess. I rest my case. Carole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
