I did talk with them but ended up going with Dr. Brad Watkins at the UC Health Weight Loss Center in West Chester. Closer to my office and home and they seemed more aggressive with fills. Good Luck to you and feel free to ask me any questions! Been banded since Jan and I am LOVING it :)

I am going to a a seminar with Dr. Curry on July 25th. Can anyone tell me what goes on at the seminar and how agressive they are to sign you up for surgery that night. I will be self paying. Any other info about Dr. Curry, staff and experience with this location would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I'm new here. First post! Nice to meet everyone. :)

I live about 2hrs away so they emailed the slides from the seminar so I can't really help you with that but his staff has been wonderful, they always seem happy to answer any questions!!

Thanks. I live almost 3 hrs away, but I really want to meet people in person so I'm making the trek all the way down. Did the slides answer all your questions and make you feel more comfortable with the surgery?

It was more of a viedo than slides, and yes it was helpful and it promted more questions for me to ask when I went for my consult. The consult was when I was able to meet everyone. I was at the office for about 3hrs, but I didn't mind since I saw everyone at once!

I understand you wanting to meet everyone, I would see if they will send it to you and you can watch it and if you feel comfortable from that then you can go for a consult and if you don't then you can still go on the 25th....just something to think about.

Did I read that you are self pay?? If so they move things very quick. I am going thru insurance and it was still fast (I thought so anyway) My first appointment was 5/16 and my surgery is August 6th and actually I could have been banded this coming Monday but I'm going on vacation the 14th and I wanted to wait till after!

Yep, self pay. I had owned a boutique, but thanks to heavy shoplifting I decided to close down. I'm selling off the remianing inventory and using the profits for lap band surgery. I figure I'm turning my business failure into a lifetime of good health this way, lol.

Self pay patients take about a month to go through the system. You have a consult, then a nutrition class, where you get your pre-op diet (mine cost an additional $188.00 for 2 weeks) and I had my surgery on July 9th. When you schedule your surgery, ask for a copy of the Surgical Weight Loss Manual (68 pages), not the small one you receive in your bag after you go through the consult, it is very useful. I think they forgot to give it to me because someone at the surgical center (Journeylite in same building as Curry) asked me if I had it right after my surgery, which I said no, and they said I could contact one of the nutritionists for it. Kind of surprised me they couldn't walk across the hallway while I was there, as I'm 45 minutes from them, but I was more concerned with walking around and getting out of there. :)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
