Brian Gluck, D.O. I have only met with Dr. Gluck for a few minutes during the informational seminar, and then during my individual surgery consult, so my impressions are preliminary ones at this point.
Dr. Gluck's seminar was very informative and I was very impressed with the mulitdisciplinary team that he has put together. His team consists of the following: himself, a registered dietician, a psychological professional, a nurse coordinator, an exercise coordinator, and support groups.
The office staff at Dr. Gluck's office have been extremely patient with my repeated intrusions into their work days with my phone calls and emails with questions and requests for additional information.
I am very comfortable with my choice of Dr. Gluck as a surgeon for my RNY, and will post additional information and impressions as we continue together on this journey.

2 week follow-up & OUCHIE!!! K...had my 2 week follow-up appt today and got the last 6 staples removed and everything is great...EXCEPT.
For days now I have been having this completely awful stabbing pain that alternates between my lower left incision and my belly button incision, or the area between the two. Anything triggers it, even something as little as opening the car door - anything at all that uses the muscle right there in the slightest little way will spur this stabbing pain that just about doubles me over.
The bariatric coordinator nurse (the doc's wife) said that since I am not nauseous, vomiting, and am having no problems either urinating or passing stool, that it is seems to be a strained muscle from when I visited the gym last week.
And guess what? Not a darn thing I can do about it other than to baby the area and let time do its healing work. Until then, I get to feel like I am being stabbed repeatedly and often....*sigh*
