Dr Lord

My appointment is tomorrow, so Im less nervous now I have read your post, thanks so much for the thorough update.

Im interested to see what he offers me and how soon I can get it done and start life over!

First visit with Dr Lord went well. He is a very likeable fellow and had a waiting room full of patients so I gather he is very busy. Very relaxed and certainly doesnt push one procedure verses another. I found myself particulary interested in his Endobarrier treatment but unfotrunately it is not covered by my health fund so is a bit expensive and only lasts 12 months. I have in the past seen various Drs here on the GC re surgery and it was very different. Here they make you meet a raft of professionals form all different fields before they operate however when asked if I needed to do this in Sydney Dr Lord said it was not neccessary.

He explained the options, sleeve, endo etc which all seemed pretty straight forward, he is certainly no frills, does not dress it up with big takaways glossy brochures etc but I must say he certainly comes over as being very very professional and good at what he does.

If I do proceed I would definately engage him, I think you will feel very comfortable in his hands Angela. I hope this helps from my brief experience.

Hey There

Just wondering how you went yesterday? Im super anxious about meeting him.

What happened and what do you need to do now?

Thanks, (my mind is racing!!!) Angela

Good luck Angela, I am there on the 6th March. I suppose like yourself I did a lot of research and Dr Lords name kept coming up so feel pretty good with the idea at the moment. Hope all goes well for you on the 14th.

Hey There, Ive got an appointment on the 14 March. Im interested to hear also. Cheers Angela :)

I have my first consultation with Dr Lord at St Vincent's Sydney in 2 weeks to start the process, has anyone had work done by Dr Lord and can give me some feedback?
