I am seeing Dr. Patterson at OWLS.  She seems very competent and experienced with revisions.   I just started the three months supervised dieting, and iI see Dr. Raum to get a new diet tomorrow.  If all goes as planned, I will have my VBG revised to a bypass in November.

Dear Karen,
   Thanks so much!  Wow, I'm so excited for you.... !!!  I can't wait to join the club....

I believe Dr. Cagle with Pacific Surgical in Vancouver is doing them now. Go to swmedicalcenter.com and look at the program under bariatric weight loss. They have a very good program and I believe are a center of excellence.

She posted last winter that she had her panni covered by insurance, and I believe she and I have the same coverage. I would like to be able to ask her, but I don't have contact info for her, and she hasn't posted in several months. If you have her contact info, and could pass along my request to her, I would be grateful! I sent her a message via the message utility on here, but unless she logs on, she won't see that she has a message.

I had my surgery one year ago on the 24th in Eugene Oregon at the Oregon Bariatric Center at Riverbend by Dr. Donald Yarborough...  He is excellent and I have had awesome success.. I am now down to 140!  Before surgery my highest weight was 266!!!
