Should I Go With Dr. Oliak In Orange County for my Lap Band Surgery ?



Recommended Posts

I just had a consult with Dr. Oliak and I think I'm ready to move forward. Not 100%, but maybe 90% sure I want to do this. The consult was easy and I think I was more nervous about it than I should have been. He was very thorough and I was impressed by his outcomes of successful patients. Are there any old patients of Dr. Oliak that can please respond back to me? Thank you.

I'm not an old patient of his, I'm a current one...I was just banded Nov 18th and it has really be a great experience! The entire experience has been great. They really work with you and were able to squeeze me in for surgery since I was having an insurance change soon. I love it so far, had a very uncomplicated surgery and recovery, and would highly recommend him.

I am so very happy that I chose to go see Dr. Oliak. I had my surgery in Feb. 2011 and it was the best decision I have ever made. He and his entire staff are very professional, supportive and super nice. I had my surgery at Placentia Linda Hospital and they were great too. I believe that one of the main reasons I have done so well is the support that I get from Dr' Oliak's office. They offer a weekly support group meeting that I really enjoy and get a lot out of. I have met new friends who have gone through weight loss surgery with Dr. Oliak also and this too is a HUGE support system for me. I have a few friends who have had the lap band done elsewhere and they have not been as successful. I really believe that the support you will receive from Dr' Oliak and his staff and fellow patients is what sets this place apart from others.

Thank you so much for responding to my thread. I'm happy to say that I've started the process with Dr. Oliak and everything has been so much easier than what I expected. His staff is incredibly helpful which has made my nerves settle a great deal. You hear all these crazy stories of awful practices that don't care about their patients or their success. All they care about is the surgery without really educating you on the lifestyle changes that come along with it. This the exact opposite of what I've experienced with Dr. Oliak and his team. The consult alone has opened my eyes to what I can realisticly expect from this. I'm so happy I chose this practice. I'm ready to start my new life.

I am so happy that you decided to go with Dr. Oliak. Take full advantage of the support groups offered. This coming up Monday's meeting is in the Chapman Hospital. Dr Oliak will be doing the class that night, you should try and go to it.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
