"I had a DS in 2002 from Dr. Welker who quit his practice about a month afterwards. I had no initial complications, but since that time I have developed malnutrition, severe Vitamin D levels, and disappointing weight loss. I started seeing Dr. Deveney in 2003 for follow-up care and advice. I am scheduled for revision surgery with Dr. Deveney on April 8, 2011. He performed a hernia repair and pannectomy in 2005 or so. Great follow-up...NEVER talks down to you or makes you feel embarassed about your condition. Tells you the risks and facts and lets you decide one way or the other on your own. He will guide you with a recommendation...but no pressure. I will post again post-revision surgery on how things went. I feel qualified to make this recommendation because I have been a patient of his since 2003 and have seen him busy...not so busy, and everything inbetween."
