I don't know anyone in the South Bay area, but in the region my choice would be Dr. Keshishian in Glendale. He is one of the few long time DS/sleeve docs in the region and one of the few in the country with the competence to take down a troublesome RNY and revise it to a DS, so is well experienced in various WLS complications. Had I not gone up to SF for my sleeve, he is the one in socal who I would have gone to. Also well regarded for troubleshooting WLS problems is Dr. Crookes at USC which is a bit closer to you, though he tends to be more of an RNY guy. Overall, I get a better feeling from Dr. K and know more people who are very pleased with him.

Wife's DS - 5/05 w Dr. Robert Rabkin   VSG on 5/9/11 by Dr. John Rabkin

Thank you so much for your honest response! I will give them a call tomorrow. I see he has an office in Redondo beach which is not far from me.

Dr Keshishian has multiple offices in Southern CA and he is very highly thought of in the bariatric community.  He handles the tough cases that other physicians won't touch so maybe you should at least email or call his office.  Good luck.
