Only he had surgery (the band), she’s naturally skinny. Both great and lots of their staff had it too.

Omg same. Wish there was something I can do too. I’ve heard few to many horror stories with ozempic and have seen people start to look like they’re on heroin from it. Diet and exercise hasn’t been helping me. Wonder if it’s my thyroid ..

He made an inappropriate comment referring to sefardim. And also he disagreed with a friend of ours on the type of surgery (she wanted the sleeve and he recommended the bypass) when she woke up from surgery she was only then informed that she was given the bypass as per Dr. Roslyns discretion… she was irate.

No, she did not. Her husband Dr. George Fielding did. So he really understands what people go through with this. They both have a lot of respect for frum people and understand the lifestyle and what that entails regarding meals etc.

Hold on- you are saying that a doctor put someone out and then did a surgery on them that was never consented to? That is crazy.

No judgement but if it's just for weight loss, please deal with the underlying issue. It is a quick fix and can cause lots of issues...

Whaaaat?
I know this is an old thread but I'm looking into bariatric surgeons and came across this thread.
Omg. How can this be true in a first world country?

Can you download the podcast “half size me”? It’s a weight loss podcast and every few weeks she has someone who did the surgery, lost a ton of weight, and then gained it all back.

Hatzlacha! If you start your own thread, you might want to put location in the subject line. Meanwhile, mi k'amcha Yisrael that so many people still kindly opened this thread.

I used him. Very skilled surgeon. Not the best bedside manner. A lot of people who used him has an unbelievably quick and easy recovery. My Dh had a consult by a diff doc and using him as the surgeon
