Thank you so much. I had the band for about two years and had to have it removed because of errosion. I would like to have the sleeve done but want to find the best Dr. out there. I used Dr Mark Watson at UT SOUTHWESTERN in Dallas for the band by he will not do the sleeve. I have a apt. with a Dr.Scott at UT but not to sure about him. Ihave been asking around about Dr.s and seven people has said Dr. Castro. I have registered on line with him and waiting for a apt. Have you had any complications with the sleeve or bad side effects? How was the hospital stay at Methodist? Thanks so much.
