I went to Dr. David Suh in Corona. He is wonderful! He is at Crown Bariatric on Magnolia St. He specializes only in RNY surgery. His complication rate is almost non-existent. Good luck on your magical journey! 10/18/02 down 127 lb.

My PCP (I am assuming that is what you are looking for) is in Riverside, next to Parkview Hospital on Magnolia. Her name is Dr. Sharon Laughlin. She is really WLS friendly, as her sister has had the surgery. I guess it would depend on what kind of insurance you have, but I really like her. Her staff is so-so, but I am willing to put up with her staff so that I can deal with her. She is really personable. She also has a really friend Physician's Assistant. I drive from Moreno Valley to see her. Good luck.

Dr. Suh also has an office in Wildomar with Dr. Essien, and Dr. Dada. Crown Surgical Group is the name. I would definately recommend them.

I used Dr. Terry Sanderfer in Corona. All he does is Open Distal RNY. I love him and his office staff; and he has an amazing PA named Frank. They also have support group meetings twice a month, one at Riverside Community Hospital and one at Parkside.

Dr David Suh is the only one I would let touch me to do the RNY procedure. He is the very best in his field (laporscopically) and his office staff, especially MO are the best! Dr Suh has an office in Corona and one in Wildomar. He does surgery at Inland Valley in Wildomar which is very close to Lake Elsinore. Good luck!

Hello: My WONDERFUL surgeon was Dr. Sanderfer in Corona. I am 2 years post op and my weight only flexuates #2 per month when it is my time of the month. He is a very caring and right on top of things if you aren't just right. He's one of those "better safe than sorry docs"......I was recommended to him by one of his patients that is 8 years post op and she is still as tiny as can be. Office staff is great.....He's at least worth going to talk to and see how you feel when you leave his office.
