Recommendations For Or Against Doctors In Charlotte, Nc



Recommended Posts

Hello!

If anyone has had the lap band done in Charlotte could you provide me with a little information about your experience? I'm currently looking for a doctor but I'd like to make sure I'm in good hands :)

I'm not from that area but I would urge you to find out a couple of things. 1. Your doc's rate of complications is very important. My doc sews his bands down and has had zero slippages. He also sews the port onto a mesh and it scars down in the fat layer so he has had zero port flips...the next thing is how they do the fills...some docs will give you only 1cc or 0.5 cc every month in which case it can take 6 months to a year to get to the green zone which is very frustrating...best of luck!!
