There aren't any in the Buffalo area.  The closest would be O'Malley in Rochester.  Most people travel even further for the DS.
I am currently seeking a revision from lap to sleeve .I am seeing Hoffman at Buff Gen.
My band was done with Synergy.

 You will have to travel. There are very few surgeons that do many of the RNY to DS revisions, and I wouldn't go to just any surgeon that claims they can handle it. It's a complicated surgery, and you want someone who has done many, and seen and handled many complications. If your the one with leaks or other issues, you want the best, and your health is worth the travel.

I think the best 2 pieces of advice that I have been given over the years are #1....... RESEARCH, RESEARCH, RESEARCH. and #2........... Go to a surgeon who does ALL 4 WLS!!!!!! That way you get accurate information, and the surgeon will not try and sway you into an ERNY.


Dr. Rabkin, Dr. Keshishian, both are located in California
