[tpierce98664 0]

I had my procedure(lapband) Thurs 2/2/06 in Greenbrae. Dr. Feng was my surgeon. I have to say I have had a great experience from start to this point with him as well as his staff and the very pleasent medical staff at Greenbrae. Dr. Feng is very kind and knowledgable he made me very comfortable and explained in detail the procedure to myself and my husband. If you have a choice ...Lapband Associates of San Francisco is wonderful. If you end up having Rita as your nurse she will make your day easier and is very caring. My post op weight 220... goal is 150. not to afraid of a fill and I am able to have it done (by Dr. Feng) in a satellite office 10 min. away from home.:clap2:

Hi my name is Helena and I had my surgery done on Jan. 24th. with Dr. Kuri, him and his staff was great. Since my surgery I have lost 11 1/2 lbs. and I feel great. I just scheduled my first fill for 3-8-06 and I can't wait to get that done. I have alot more energy now and yesterday I wore a pair of jeans that I couldn't get to button around me weeks ago. My post op weight was 200 and my goal is 135-140. I promised my husband that I wouldn't loss too much too quickly. I hope to have 40-50 lbs. off by summer. Keep me posted on your results.

Hi Helena! Please let me know how your fill goes...I think you are going to lose fast..I promised my husband the same thing...sometimes I can get carried away by a good thing.Awesome with the jeans pretty soon you will be able to put them on and off without unbuttoning!!
