Hi.  I am 13 years post op from a roux n y.  My surgeon was Dr Newhoff in Phoenix and he is no longer practicing.  In the past 10 months I have gained 60 pounds.  I just had an upper gi done and it was found that my surgery is dumping and is no longer effective.  I will need to have a revision.  I do not know of any surgeons to go to.  Can anyone recommend me to a surgeon who is in Mesa, Chandler, Scotts, or even Phoenix.  Has anyone else had any experience with a revision?

I have not had a revision but I highly recommend Dr. Juarez and the other docs in his practice... They are at Phoenix St. Luke's Hospital.  My surgeon Dr. Zahn was also affiliated with St Luke's and the Bridges Center but is now retired.  If I had any concerns I would go to Dr. Juarez or someone in his practice over anyone else.  My RNY was in 2002...a friend had her RNY with Dr. Juarez and was having some unusual abdomenal pains that no one could effectively diagnose....one call to Dr. Juarez, transferred to St. Luke's and had successful surgery for a bowel obstruction.  I continue to be impressed by the Phx St. Luke Bariatric doctors.....
