Dr. Ramesh Ramanathan - Anybody else?

[-valentine- 0]

I'm going to get banded (hopefully) in March-ish of 2011 by Dr. Ramanathan. I met him in August 2010 and he was very nice. I also saw his PA, Kelly. I noticed there were no posts in his section so I might as well be the first.

I was banded by dr. ramanathen on sept. 13 2010....doing alright i guess other than dealing with not having a fill yet...my first fill is oct. 25...cant wait! The doctor and everyone else i have talked to at magee's are very nice. My surgery went pretty well, pain was gone within a week and somehow I lucked out with only having two insicions! Anyhow goodluck to you both!

I had my first trip to Magee Oct. 15 2010. I go to see Dr. Ramanathan on Nov. 11 , I am very excited and nervous. Not sure what to expect for first visit so fill me in and get me ready.

I am almost a year out from my surgery. I love Dr Ramanathan, and really love Kelly! I would like to say I love my band, but right now we aren't getting along lol. I have definitly lost weight and don't regret getting it, but ultimitly, depending on how Dec 16th (my 1 year bandiversary) UGI goes, I may lose it . Please don't let this scare any of you though. Like I said above, even if I do...no regrets!

I am a Dr. R patient. Kelley has been amazing and I think she talks to me so often now that she knows my voice over the phone before I tell her who I am. I have my last weigh in next Thursday (2/24) and then they ship the paperwork off to the insurance to get approval. I'm hoping to have surgery in April because I'm trying to schedule it around some holiday time at work so I don't have to take as many days off. I'm very excited, nervous, scared, anxious and hopeful. I've made huge changes especially the last two months so I'm hoping that I will be successful in the long run with this tool. I've yo-yo'd all my life and I'm hoping this will help me maintain.

Good luck and keep us posted.
