My experience with Dr. Perez has been terrible! I was banded in 06 and the band never really worked right. Then I had to have my port replaced. Then every time I went in for a fill, (because the weight wasn't coming off) I was made to feel like I was doing something wrong! I would tell the nurses and the Dr that I had little to no restriction. They just blew me off and said I needed to be more diligent in my eating. Which I was. Then when I would leave, I would have restriction for only about a day and a half. When I would go back, he would check my band and it had less than what he put in! So, there is a leak. I am self pay and they aren't doing anything to help me. My husband and I have both spoke to them, and they recommend that I have the band removed, and have the gastric sleeve! They have never suggested I have a scope, to see what exactly is wrong and if it can be fixed. They just left me twisting in the wind! Now, I have a band, that I paid for, that doesn't work, and no help from Dr. Perez!
