Some of the Vegas bandsters go to Kuri for fills but they are really frustrated. A few gals said he schedules too many patients at once, and they've waited in the waiting room for up to four hours past their scheduled time. You should call his office and see if they have this problem worked out, or at least take a good book.

Dr Kuri just started using a new/larger/nicer hospital this week. The people who have been filled this week are giving glowing reports of faster times etc. Not sure if he fills those bands though.

I'm a happy Kuri patient, but from the info I have gathered on this board, Ortiz is an excellent choice. So glad he can take care of you!!!!

I went to Dr. Kuri for my first and only fill. I do believe he hit the sweet spot on the first try. I am so glad I went to him for my fill since he wasn't my surgeon. I have perfect restriction!

      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.
