I live on Lake Conroe, 50 miles north of Houston, and had mine done at Herman Hospital in the Medical Center by Dr. Terry Scarborough. He is a great doctor and the fee includes 1 year of fills.

Well, tomorrow is the big day! I am from Southeast Texas (Liberty), and was banded on October 12th. I have lost 29 pounds and am schedules for my first fill on Nov 17th. I had my surgery done at Herman Memorial in Houston by Dr. Spivak. Recovery was great. Had it done on Wednesday and was back at work on Monday feeling great. I have ankles again and my clothes are starting to get a little big, but not falling off yet. Anyway, good luck, you will do great. I'll be thinking about you.

Dr. Felix Spiegel at Texas Laparoscopy Center? anyone heard of him or used him?

He did my best friend almost 2 years ago and my moms friend a few months ago. They have had nothing but good things to say about him. I wanted to use him but i'm a self pay so I couldn't pay his 15,700 when I can go to san antonio for 10,950. I'm not doing it just to save the money, the wish center is combariably good to Dr. Spiegel.

Hi, GlitterQueen and NavyWife!! Thanks for the hello's...

I had my surgery done Tuesday, released 24 hours later, home in another day. Absolutely zero pain, nausea or problem of any kind. Great experience in Acuna (not so afterwards) and great price break for both surgery and fills. I consider myself more than lucky -- blessed.

John Deer Girl... I was wondering if we went to high school together?? I think I ran into you at the seminar for Dr. Spivak on a Friday, and I had be thinking about you ever since. I was banded 3 days ago on Wednesday November 16th. Let me know if that is you because i stay right off of hwy 6 and we could get together foer support.

I don't qualify for the South Texas thing, but I am Southeast. Near Beaumont. I went to Houston and had my surgery with Dr. Spivak. He is just the best in the world. There were other doctors closer to me but I opted to use him because I had just gotten such good vibes from him. I also had my surgery at Park Place Medical Center because my insurance pays for it. The only bad thing is that if you have it at Renissance or wherever you fills under fluro are included. Now Spivak will do my fills in his office free for two years but they are not under fluro. That means that if he overfills me then it is a long drive back to get a little taken out. Thank goodness I haven't had to do that yet.

Hi everyone, I am from Bay City, about 1 1/2 hours SE of Houston. I used Speigel for my surgery and switched to Dr. Chang, in Victoria, for follow up and fills. I adore Dr. Chang!!!
