Shanu Kothari, M.D. Initial impression was he was very professional and knowledgeable. He has performed over 550 WLS and everyone I have talked to that has had the surgery, has had it done by him. He is at Gundersen Lutheran in La Crosse, WI and performa primarily Laparoscopic GB but will do open if it is warranted.
I would recommend him to anyone in the area that is considering having it done. He is very in tune to the aftercare and support groups that Gundersen offers and has a fabulous dietary staff as well as surgery team that are all about the patient.
Katy,
Congrats on your new
beginning tomorrow.
I will pray for you
a smooth and quick
recovery. I'm sure
you'll be just fine.
Remember to take it
one day at a time.
Save me a seat on
the losers bench,
I'll be there a day
later.
Walking in a Weight Loss ONDERLAND! WOO FRIGGIN' HOO! I finally broke the stall. Sure the day after the final weight entry for the Valentine's Challenge. I had to enter 200 :o( Nut when I woke up the morning of the 15th....I saw 198. I weighed periodically throughout the day and I never went back to 200 even after I ate!
La De Friggin' Da! Yeah for me! I think this is it. 63 awful pounds gone forever! I am so proud of myself.
New challenge goal weight is 185! Let's hope my stall doesn't last another 6 weeks.
63 pounds in 4 1/2 months WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Still training for the 5K! Can't wait to do it! I KNOW I CAN!
