Dr. Birkmeyer did my surgery at U of M.  I think they have a great program.  They have a lot of doctors involved - endocrines that do follow-ups and a great nutritionist along with the Hunger Within Program.  They have three support group meetings every month and have different U of M docs come and lots of other speakers and activities.  Feel free to e-mail me if you have specific questions.  My e-mail is [email protected].

Dr. Baker did my RNY.  I am well pleased with the practice and their follow up.  I'm six years out.

Just wondering who has used them for their Dr/Sugery?

I am using Dr. Kemmeter - and so far I like him and the GHP staff.

What kind of review do all of  you that have been there have?

I do a lot of stuff with U of M and I probably would have had my RNY done there as well, however at that time my insurance would only cover for me to go to Hurley in Flint..... Sorry I couldn't help you, but the services and doctors I have dealt with there have been amazing....

 

HUGS,
