Usually, they weigh you, then they talk about your qualifications and what the lapband will and won't do for you. What kind of things you can expect and what living with a lapband is like. They will also go over any requirments for your insurance, or if you are self-pay, they will go over the different financing options.

I was selfpay and I had the money so, I just paid with my credit card. But, most people who are selfpay tend to use one of the finance companies that they know of, becuase they offer much lower interest rates.

They are also going to look at any medical history that you have that may or may not require any extra testing. This is the same office you would get your fills at later most likely.

Usually, it is Theresa that is at the front desk, and Dyann who you talk to about stuff, she is also the fill nurse. Feel free to ask them anything, they are really nice people. They only do lapband, but they can answer other questions if you have them.
