Hi, I'm 57 and live in northern MI. I have had weight problems since I was very young and have struggled all my life with losing. My BMI is over 50. I have no health problems yet, and want to keep it that way. My surgery will be in Petoskey, MI and will be in Jan. 2013

Has anyone had WLS at McLaren hospital by Dr Baker or Dr Nagle? How is their aftercare?

I went to a seminar a few weeks ago and a consult today. The doctor told me the band has a high fail rate and 5 years out most regain all their weight. She said I should consider getting the gastric sleeve. The band sounds safer to me. The surgery will be in Petoskey.
