Are you revising to ds?? Because there are only a handful of docs skilled enough to do such a complicated surgery. Please don't go to just anyone, that is a major major major surgery! Major. Don't play around with that. dsfacts.com has a list of vetted surgeons. Good luck!

Dr. Lord in Pensacola Florida does revisions and I think Dr. Murr does  in Tampa Florida at Tampa General Hospital. Hope this helped a little.

Thank you for responding!  I appreciate it very much.  I have emailed Dr. Husted just yesterday, so I am looking forward to hearing from him.  I was just hoping to have it done close to home, if possible.  Thanks again.

If you are revising to a DS, and if you research this surgery you will see that this is your best option, you will have to go outside of Florida as there are no DS surgeons in Florida, never mind DS surgeons who can do the revision. Since Dr. Husted is an excellent DS surgeon and he did your first surgery, it might be worth it to at least call him and discuss your current situation with him. I have no doubt he will give you the best possible advice.

Physical beauty does not buy happiness. In fact, it can get in the way of a healthy self-image.

Hi.  I had RNY (fobi) by Dr. John Husted in Nashville 4/99.   Love Dr. Husted but he is now in Arizona.  Prefer not to travel so far if possible.  I started pre RNY AT 383---LOW WT 145...Gained 83 lbs. w my twins....stuck at 218-222 now for almost 3 yrs.  Just starting to search for surgeon....I think my ins. will pay.  I called  UHC & they say I just need Dr. to send file in for a preapproval. Hope they will!

Topic: Need Help Finding Dr's. in Boynton Beach area
Hi All:

Well I'm moving from Tarpon Springs, FL to Boynton Beach, Fl and in need for Great Dr's in that area.

I have used my Internist-PCP and Orthopedic Dr's for the past 30 years.  It's a little scary moving and not having the right Dr's to go to, so all help is Appreciated.  I have my labs done every 3 months by my Diabetic Dr he is also my Internist.  And I really rely on him for everything.  He even recommended my RNY Surgeon.

If you can give me any names of these Dr's you use in the Boynton Beach area it would be very helpful.

Also, any meetings will be helpful.
Thank's for ther help,
Susan G.
