Guest guest Posted August 29, 2001 Report Share Posted August 29, 2001 The very first time I met my surgeon Dr. s he told me that at one time he considered stopping WLS due to leaks. At one point he had a series of operations that everyone leaked. His solution was to contact other doctors in the area if they had the same problems. He found oout about a new stapler and started using it and has had no leaks in the past 2 1/2 months. That is what I like so much about Dr. s is that he is so honest. Think about it first time meeting a patient and you tell him about real issues that almost made him stop doing WLS. We all hold our surgeons in high esteem due to the fact that they give us the opportunity to live a better quality of life. Dr. s even gives his patients his home phone number. (for any Dr. out there who may be a lurker not one of his patients abuse the home phone number) IMHO he is the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
