I'm in La Quinta, just west of you in the Palm Springs area. I was banded on June 8th by Dr. Coon in Riverside. Did everybody feel the earthquake? Certainly gave us a good jolt!

Hi Everyone. I am new to this web site and still waiting to be banded. I have been driving to Beverly Hills for appointments. Now I find out that I can get it done closer! I live in Moreno Valley which is about 10 miles east of Riverside.

Hope to hear from anyone out this way or in the So Cal area.

As you see by my log in name, my name is Debbie....just kidding...(:rolleyes:) it's really Linda.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
