MacBand replied to jessicakolman's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I understand Back to Me. By the way, why did you pick that as your screen name? Just curious. I wish everyone the absolute best. I hope everyone is as thrilled as I have been these past several months. I am starting to take a step class at the gym and it is kicking me in the butt!! -
I understand what you mean. Thanks for your view, let's focus then on the actual surgery and maybe talk about how surgery has changed lives. That would be a neat topic I think. Hugs.

Now I understand what you mean. I didn't mean it that way. I'll lay it low key then. Thanks for your view and best wishes. PS> I still am so grateful for Dr. Enochs changing my life forever. I flew to California 2 weeks ago and I sat in an airplane seat without having people stare me down. You have no idea how happy I felt. YAY!!!On your date. November is a great time!! Congrats and let us know how your journey goes.!!

Back To Me, this isn't meant to be a thread for misrepresentation. I adore Dr. Enochs because he changed my life!!! No, I don't work for him, and yes I have lost tremendous weight from my Lap Band!! You are free to choose whomever you want but once you undergo this change in your life, you feel nothing but gratitude to the surgeon and the practice that did it to you!! That's all. Best wishes to you and feel free to choose anyone you want. It's a personal choice but just be happy with everything at the end. :thumbup: No hard feelings. But please be nice. Lanakila, Im happy for you. Im happy you are going through with the surgery from the surgeon of your choice. You will be extremely happy in the end, I promise! I just really and truly have a new life. I have energy to rock climb and do so much now. Best wishes, no harm meant, just excited to be here! Hugs.

hey brittany, I think he just was stating the facts point blank, it is important for everyone to be aware, that's all. Plus he gives these seminars 2x a week. Best wishes girl! Dr. Enochs is truly fabulous!
-
Yes, talk to Angelica at the office. She is fantastic! They offer excellent financing for Lap Band and I know this because I used it!
-
DR ENOCHS IS THE BEST! I guarantee you will be happy! His success is unbelievable. Do a DR Enochs search on YouTube.com and see what others think of him. Also check him out on obesityhelp.com!! He trained everyone else and did med school and residency in the United States. :wink_smile: I had my LAPBAND back in January and feel terrific!
-
Dr. Enochs is the best in my experience but to each their own. I wish everyone the best. I have heard great successes from both sides but I felt Dr. Enochs is more personable. Plus he had more experience and better weight loss results. Best wishes, can't wait to hear your story!:wink_smile:
-
I haven't heard too much about Dr. Moran but he did med school overseas. I had my LapBand with Dr. Enochs and he and his staff were phenomenal.!! I was so pleased with my experience with Dr. Enochs. I have lost over 68 pounds so far! :wink_smile: Best wishes and keep us posted.

Not to scare you but the Realize Band just came out and the LAP BAND came out first. I would wait til all the kinks are out on the REALIZE. I also think you need to attend Dr. Enochs' seminar held every week at either Rex Hospital or Wake Med Cary. His seminars are informative and he is the KING of Bariatrics. He has had more training, done more cases, and started Bariatrics in Raleigh. I guarantee he is the absolute best. Best wishes. :cursing: -
hi jeri! After you do all your pre work up, make sure the office sends the paperwork to Dr. Enochs, sometimes psych takes awhile so follow up often! Best wishes..... keep us posted. :cursing:)
-
hey girl! go to Dr. Enochs' website and sign up for his seminar! You will know why he is the best after you attend. Hands down, you will not be disappointed. I am almost 6 months out from surgery and feel AWESOME!!!!!! :cursing: Utube Dr. Enochs and see what other patients say. Best wishes.
-
Everyone can have their own opinion but Dr. Enochs trained everyone is in my opinion the best. Even NBC sponsers Dr. Enochs if you go on their website NBC17, Breaking News, Local News, Weather, NBC17, Raleigh Durham Cary Chapel Hill - NBC 17 under health or something. As long as you are comfortable with your decision. Dr. E is for me the best since I've had not so good experiences with Dr. Moran and heard the follow up care is horrible. UTUBE Dr. Enochs and see what others say! Best wishes...!
-
Hi Claudine! I absolutely adore Dr. Enochs and his staff. I am 3 months out from surgery, with absolutely NO PAIN! If you want to read about what patients say, I would also go to obesityhelp.com. The bariatric world LOVE him! Plus he is the most experienced! The word is out on how awesome of a surgeon he is. I went for a follow up and noted new people so I guess they are training and hiring. I think your overall experience with Dr. Enochs will be fabulous!~ His nurse Lisa is absolutely wonderful!! Best wishes and keep us all posted! HUGS!

I am sorry to hear your experience, but I believe that you will find Dr. Enochs (as a physician and experience) to be far better. I actually went to Dr. Moran and had a horrible experience with him. He is stiff and very cold natured. Immediately I went to Dr. ENOCHS' seminar and found him more personable. I would call the office and ask for Lisa, his nurse or email her direct at llong@surgerync.com. She will definitely take great care of you. Best wishes! Hugs :rolleyes2:
-
Beware of Mexico! I don't want to discourage or disappoint but personally just attend the seminar by Dr. Enochs (www.surgerync.com) and you will see why. Oh my, the band that they use is NOT the Lap Band. It has far more complications. Insurance will cover the lap band. Best wishes.
-
Hi all! The one psychologist to go to as recommended by Dr. Enochs is Tammi Moore. She is starting to see patients in the office now directly. I saw her and she is FABULOUS!! I highly recommend her. If you call the office, ask how to get scheduled I guess. Best wishes!
-
HI Marie! I'm not sure but if you ask for lisa at the office 919-459-0091, she can tell you. I believe it's pretty reasonable compared to other facilities. Take care.

Hi Marie! I think you will find Dr. Enochs to be the best! He is truly an expert in weight loss surgery both the gastric bypass and the Lap Band! I had my surgery 2 months ago and feel great! My friend had a bypass by him 4 1/2 months ago and has lost 70 pounds and NO PAIN! She feels awesome! Dr. Enochs is truly a gift and so his the staff! see surgerync.com for seminar info. once you attend you'll know! Best wishes!

Anyone used Dr. Enochs in Cary/Raleigh NC?
MacBand replied to mpope's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
Dr. Enochs is by far the BEST bariatric surgeon! You should check him out on surgerync.com! He did my surgery 2 months ago and I have lost over 30 pounds! He is truly personable and kind and extremely caring! His staff is also wonderful in getting you through the process.! Plus, it's not over after the surgery, they are there for you even after! The team is wonderful and so is DR. Enochs! He trained everyone else so GO TO THE BEST who is definitely Dr. E! Good luck!
