Sthomas 0 Posted March 16, 2006 I have been researching the lap band surgery for the last 6 months. I still haven't decided which Dr. I should consider. I have attended several seminars offered by several different physicians. Any opinions about your physician would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msks 0 Posted March 21, 2006 My band was done by Dr. Malley and I have been very satisified with him and his staff. Another source of information is the local band support group. Their web site is http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/KCBandsters/ I also found out that Dr. Opie with Midwest Surgical Association in Olathe will start doing bands this month. Good luck with your research. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheetsin 714 Posted March 21, 2006 I live in Missouri, about 30 mins from KS and I chose Dr. Hoehn to do my surgery. This is after 3+ years of researching surgeons, and several personal recommendations for him from people I trust. I didn't pick him because he was local, I was prepared to fly to CA for my 2nd choice surgeon. It just so happened he was local.
