Dr Thirlby in Seattle is great, and I know people who have had great results with him. He does the surgery at Virginia Mason. Also, there is Dr Brandt, Dr Bock, Dr Oelshlager(spelling?) who are all in Seattle and have good reputations. Hope this helps.

Three weeks ago yesterday I had RNY Lap at U of W hospital. My doctor is Brant Oelschlager. He is an excellent surgeon and I really wanted to have a Lap rather than Open. I'm back at work and feeling a little weak but fine. I had no complications. I would do it again in a heartbeat.
