Answer
Dear AD,
I'm very sorry to learn of your troubles with alcohol after gastric bypass.

The best option would be to follow up with your original surgeon.  Based on your question I suspect that is not desirable/practical.

The next best bet is to search for a surgeon who participates in a designated Center of Excellence. You can find these in your area on the Center of Excellence website at:

Best of luck to you,
Dr JP
