Duodenal switch surgery
If you're considering weight loss surgery, it is your responsibility as the patient to investigate the surgeon, the side effects, the reasonable expectations for success, and the long-term prognosis for success.

Ask questions. Go online and investigate. Talk to other people who have had the surgery you're considering.  Visit some forums. And, above all, consider all of the possibilities before committing to a life-altering surgical procedure.

Duodenal Switch - Success Story #3
On 25 October 2005, we received this note from L.T. concerning her duodenal switch surgery:

"I had duodenal switch surgery done 27 May 2005.  I have lost 103 pounds. I've experienced no trouble whatsoever.

The surgery was done completely "open" by Dr. Margaret Inman. She was fantastic!"

Thank you L.T. for sharing your inspirational story with us.

If you have had duodenal switch surgery, e-mail us your story. Be sure to include your initials, city, and state so that we can include the information with your story.
