I met Dr. Jackson thru the Medical weight-loss centers. Very nice easy going person. He explained everything to me in great detail, listened and answered all my questions. The surgeries he performed on me were, gallbladder removal, and putting "the lap band" on me. Everything went very smoothly. I would highly recommend Dr. Jackson.

I go to the Beverly Hills office. One fill was done by Dr. Tashjian who I liked alot ! Last time I went in, I saw Dr. Samouha, I like him alot, we talked alot about how everything is going. He was very informative, Offered diet tips, listened and approved and disapproved of things I'm doing. I'm going to stick with Dr. Samouha. I hope this helps. -

Hi Fifiliga ! I hope it is the same Dr. Jackson. I can't speak highly enough about him. Good luck with everything -
I too am from SoCal,Southbay area. I see those LapBand signs all over the place. Must be working if they can afford all that advertisement. I was suppose to be banded 5/06, But the surgeon put it off a week because I just had my gall bladder pulled. New date is 5/13. Good Luck to me and to everyone else
