Guest guest Posted September 27, 2000 Report Share Posted September 27, 2000 Denice - Dr. Maguire is absolutely BRILLIANT! He is one of the founding members of the ASBS and has never missed a meeting. He has been doing bariatric surgery for 20 years and the DS for 10 years. He did my surgery 8/22. I have talked to him several times and while he is a little soft spoken -- he genuinely cares and takes the time to answer all your questions. He is very concerned about pain management and even more concerned about follow-up care. He also has never missed a support group meeting, which is held the second Tuesday of each month at Kettering Hospital. There are several of us Maguire Switchees -- I'm sure you'll get lotsa great input. Let me know if you have other questions, I can either answer them or point you in the right direction.

Ask and someone there will direct you. Or better yet meet us for dinner and we will show you the way. Hugs, Ronda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2000 Report Share Posted September 27, 2000 Rhonda, thanks, sounds great, I will try, I would love to meet you all,, I just moved to Indiana and I don't know anyone here , so it would be nice to make new friends, but I wont know until then, my husband works nights and I have two eleven year old twins, so I have to see if he can take off to be with them. But I will sure try. Thanks for the invite. :-) Denice S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
