  2. I had my band placed by Dr. Stevenson and a revision/ hernia repair with Dr. Monash two weeks ago. I liked Dr. Stevenson but what I disliked was the fact that a nurse practioner was handling my after care. I ended up having a slip and had to take several trips to Scottsdale for follow up care (barium swallow). After being told I had a minor slip and it would heal on its own I went for a second opinion with Dr. Monash and a third with Dr. Galvani at UMC. Both Dr. Galvani and Dr. Monash said I needed a revision (reband placement) while TrueResults said everything was normal. I absolutely love Dr. Monash. He is honest and straight forward with you. I can ask him any band related question. Such as the left shoulder pain many people experience. I asked Dr. Stevenson and was told it wasn't related to the band. While Dr. Monash gave an explanation and reasoning behind his answer. I wish I would have paid the $2,000 more from the beginning and went with Dr. Monash. Don't waste your time with TrueResults.
