GeekJen 4 Posted September 10, 2012 I am getting my procedure done in 3 weeks on September 28th with True Results. I am a 28 year old female. I am looking for a Mentor or Buddy, or both to help be support and a friend through this time. I started my pre-op diet today. Looking forward to chatting.

Butterflybaby 26 Posted September 29, 2012 Hi, I'll be getting my band through True Results in S.A. too! I won't be able to get it until Jan '13. I believe Dr. Benevides will be my dr. How much longer until your surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sharklove82 10 Posted September 29, 2012 Hello there! I got my band through True Results Scottsdale, AZ on 6/26/12. Let me tell u they are wonderful! I researched this procedure for years prior and was actually going to do it thru another doctor/ facility (terrry Simpson) a couple years prior but they were no help with anything!! The insurance part I had to do all the work and the staff was just RUDE! Then I found true results what a difference Wow! Got my surgery covered in 6 months, they did all the work. The staff is Amazing! I hope u experience the same! Best of luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeekJen 4 Posted September 29, 2012 Got banded yesterday and I am doing well. In pain but getting through it. Trying to figure out if I am hungry or if it is just a habbit thing. Figured it might take me a few days to get that straight. lol Overall though a good Surgery. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
