Hi i am scheduled with Dr Sweitzer for RNY surgery on November 16th it was about an 8 week wait from when i got my approval but from what i hear he is worth it and the best. I wish nothing but luck to you:) I hate playing the waiting game i find myself a lil miserable right now knowing i am just waiting for the day:)) This was the best decision i have ever made for myself i am 31 a mom, wife and diabetic!!
Topic: RE: UMMC
Unfortunately, it can take a while. My last nut appointment was on May 5th and I didn't have my surgery until July 26th. I believe I heard back from Janice mid/end of June. It takes a while unfortunately, but its definitely worth it. Good Luck!!!
The only regret I have is that I didn't to it sooner!!!!

Yes, my surgeon of choice is Larry H.Lickstein, M.D. He was referred to me (along with a few others) by my bariatric surgeon. Dr. Lickstein is fantastic in every way. You can read all of his credentials on the website of Cosmedic Surgery Center of Maryland, www.cscmd.com and see before and afters of his work. He's not the cheapest, but when it comes to your body, scars, and having someone who knows what they are doing after massive weight loss, he's it!

Hello fellow Marylanders. I am getting ready to start researching plastic surgery stuff and thought I'd start local to see if anyone has used a plastic surgeon they were particularly pleased with in MD, DC or VA.
Thanks so much!!

Congratulations on your decision. Dr. Schweitzer is my surgeon also and actually he did me and my 2 sisters. He's the best and I had complications and he was right on top of it. I do not regret my decision on bit. I would have never lost this amount of weight and counting without this tool. Oh yeah I got RNY. Good Luck and keep the faith.

Good morning and nice to meet you!
Congrats on the decision to take control back of your life. It is an up & down journey with the occassional scarey twist & turn, but it is sooooo worth it!
I had GB in June of 2009, and do not regret one minute of it. I am off all meds, and feel healthier than I have in YEARS!!!!!!!!
Good luck and if you ever need to talk, please feel free to message me!
