Revisions of previous weight loss surgery
When I came seeking a revision, the first thing Dr. K said to me, was “I remember you” and then when I told her how much I gained back she replied “you are still beautiful”. Worried about which option I was to do, she guided me thru the process to the BOB (band over bypass). She knew my weaknesses and my strengths, and gave me the information and knowledge to make a educated decision.
When my Mom objected, Dr. K spoke to her on the phone, answering all her questions. The night before my surgery, I spoke with Dr. K on the phone and she reassured me of my decision. Today, I am 4 months out from my revision, have restriction back and down over 40lbs, and I am 16lbs away from my goal.
