Anyone have Dr. Kane in Arlington Heights for surgery..
Hi, you picked a great group of doctors. They are well rounded and have been doing WLS for many years. In fact Dr Rantis did my husband's WLS almost 4 years ago. We are going this next Saturday to speak at their pre surgery seminar. I am not sure if you have gone to a seminar yet but that is the starting point with their group to begin the process.
There are a few people on the IL board that have had their surgery with them. Lucy, Ronna, Coppersmomma (Shannon) (is pre op with Dr Kane), to name a few. http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/forums/?ID=98862755 2 This is Dr Kane's link to his patient forum. You can go there and snope around.
Hope this helps.

Good morning. I had Dr. Guske from the same group. All of the doctors are fantastic and really care about you as a person.
I know Dr. Kane as a professional. He was one of the surgeons who performed surgeries at the hospital I work at. He also took care of me while I was in the hospital and needed a hernia repair. He did some of the post-op visits.
This group of surgeons is very committed to their patients, and require an extensive amount of screening and testing before scheduling WLS. They are really looking to achieve the best outcome for each individual patient.
I can recommend them highly from both a professional standpoint, I am a nurse and from the patient perspective.
I am almost two years out, my anniversary is this Friday and I am so thankful to Dr. Guske for giving me my life back. It's been an amazing journey.
If you have any questions, feel free to email me. I will try to help you. Best wishes on the beginning of your journey!
Lucy
