Hi Anna. A friend of my had her gastric bypass w Dr Roye and she has raved about him consistently. Im having surgery w Dr Ryder - one of his partners and she has been and Im sure will be just as great. Keep faith in knowing that the Dr is experienced and has a staff and support system with him to assist in your procedure. Best of luck & God Bless.

Topic: BPD Surgery, have you had this?
Hi everyone,
I am new to the forum and am so glad I found it!
Has anyone out there had Biliopancreatic Diversion surgury? Due to other health issues this is the surgery that Dr. Roye is performing on me. Date will be offered soon. This will be an open surgery. He will also perform a Heller myotomy at the same time, this is to repair problems with my esophogus.
If you have had or know someone who has had this surgery I would love to hear from you!
Thanks, Anna

Anna

Topic: RE: LOST MY BAND ON VALENTINES DAY
Hi there, so sorry to hear of all the problems! this is my first post, and am having a Myotomy and biliopancreatic diversion open surgery done by Dr. Roye.

I am writing you to tell you of my distaste for Dr. Pole. A few years back he attempted to remove a hemorriod in his office for my husband. Husband drove home, very weak. After a short while, we had to check the gauze for bleeding. Well, he was gushing! Called the Dr and he waited in his office for us to return there. My husband was in the room with the Dr for 1 1/2 hours trying to stop the bleed, after which the Dr came out to get me to help him. There was blood everywhere. Soaked towels on the floor, and my husband was white and not very responsive. The Dr asked me to take over so he could call the RWH  to set up emergency surgery, and then called an ambulance. HE had a very scared look on his face and wasnt very reasuring. At the hospital they performed surgery to find the bleed. What happened?
He had snipped the hemorroid but didn't get it all because he couldn't reach it!  So, the surgery then allowed him to go in and find the other end of the hemorriod and stitched it. After a couple of hours he sent us home, it was midnight. I never slept that night, worried he may continue to bleed. The Dr never admitted his error in judgement and said this happened all the time!  Any Dr who has such bad judgement is a useless Dr.
