I have one more doctors visit before the surgeons office can submit my paperwork!!! It seems like this last month is taking forever....Psych visit 9/29, surgeon consultation, 10/9, last Dr. Visit 10/15....let the countdown begin.....

My primary care doctor keeps trying to convince me to get the sleeve because she had it done, but ultimately I think I'm gonna stick with getting the band because it appears to be the safest route...no permanent altering of your stomach!

CONGRATS!!!! :-)

Good luck!! :-)

Good luck!! :-)

Also does anybody know if instead of making 2 separate doctor visits will the insurance company count my last visit if I just go to the surgeon/dietary consultantion??

Why did you have 2 do your 4 months all over again? I'm nervous about if I submit it and its denied having to start all over again....

This is so exciting!! All of us are in the same boat, it is very exciting which is making me even more impatient than I already are! Let's keep each other posted hopefully we all get banded around the same time! :-)

Im in the area....sending my paperwork over to my surgeons office (Dr. Wagner) on Tuesday....hopefully I will be banded soon!

Hello, new to the site. I've been considering lab band surgery for years and I'm finally at the point were I'm going to try to make it happen!!! Problem is I'm on Medicaid currently and the doctors that cover it I've heard horrible stories about!!!! The patients are always sick, have to get multiple surgeries to correct issues...etc. So now I'm scared to go thru with it....or maybe do self pay with a place in another state that I've been trying to get info about. Anyone get there surgery done with thebanddoctor.com???? Dr. Trace Curry....if so have you had any complications
