CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted October 2, 2011 Prof Weiner did my original lapband surgery in 2001. I received very good care at that same hospital, although they kept me longer then i wanted to stay. At that time, German hospitals tended to keep people much longer then American counterpart for everything - not sure if that is still the case. This surgeon is very experienced in all types of bariatric surgery. Even though the band was a failure for me (just got it removed last week), I feel that Dr Weiner is top notch. For what it is worth, other doctors were impressed by how tiny and unnoticable my surgical scars were too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
