My first #sages2025 was unforgettable. Seeing mentors from med school, residency, and fellowship speak at well-organized and thoughtful panels was a highlight. It’s a privilege to be part of this awesome community. @PareshShahMD @ucla_chen @docstephwood @AndreaStroud1

Is #Minimally #Invasive #esophagectomy creating unforeseen issue? 😮 Read rdcu.be/ecXPB @Surgendosc @SAGES_Updates. OHSU group shows 6.7% dev hiatal hernia at 24 mo. 🔍Surprising risk factors: lower BMI (OR 2.96) & shorter ICU stays! #SurgicalComplications #CancerResearch

Metabolic and bariatric patients are at high risk for suboptimal breastfeeding outcomes. Below is a link to recently published practice guidelines for bariatric and women's health providers to aid in their counseling of lactation in this special population
Please share this important guide for bariatric teams and women's health providers to support and educate MBS patients in lactation, an important but overlooked topic. soard.org/article/S1550-7289… @ASMBS @SOARD_JOURNAL @UCDavisSurgery @UCD_Weight

Best part of being back in SF for #ACSCC2024 was catching up with old @UCSFSurgery coresidents and friends. The bonds from being in the hospital trenches together last forever. @UCSFGSResidency @VictoriaLyo @MelissaHColeman @ErrolBushMD @yvigneswaran @UCSF_Naffziger

Acid reflux accounts for 43.7% of the conversions from OAGB to RYGB. Remarkably, the symptom resolution rate pre-op stands at 96.8%. While complications post-conversion are at 4.6%, the mortality rate is 0%. Important insights for patients considering conversions. #SAGES2024 – at Cleveland, OH

I’m a proud research momma this week ☺️. One of my *awesome* research students - Rachel Tran MS3 - did an OUTSTANDING job presenting our data on how depression & psychotropic meds affect bariatric surgery outcomes. She is a FUTURE LEADER in the field!!! 🎉🎉🎉 #ASMBS2023 @ASMBS

Calling all metabolic/bariatric surgeons, and obesity medicine providers- please use the updated 2022 ASMBS/IFSO guidelines. Let's stop referencing 1991 guidelines for obesity treatment.
