Default Doctors who will do Takedowns!

Folks this is extremely valuable information that I have picked up on a complication for Gastric Bypass Surgery. I'm posting it here because so many need help with doctors who can help fix problems, and do take downs or reversals. SO with that said.......... and by the way I know Dr. Naaman is retiring and doing no more of them. Janie

Doctors willing to do reversals/takedowns .

Dr. John and Robert Rabkin (brothers) in San Francisco, CA 1-888-848-8446

Dr. Husted to do reversals since the demand has increased.
They take self pay (around $22,000) and insurance. They don't take Tricare
but the two hospitals they work out of do so that would be covered and the
doctors fee is around $6,000.
