Bander in Pasadena



Recommended Posts

I first thought about getting banded back in April 2005 but thought I had not tried everything I could to lose the weight. Unfortunately by the end of 2005 I had been diagnosed with sleep apnea and type II diabetes. My blood pressure was also on the rise - I was a prime candidate for the surgery.

After working on getting all the documentation needed and getting my mind set to have the surgery done I was approved on September 1st by the insurance company and had the surgery on September 6, 2006.

I have quite a way to go but I think I can do it.

My doctor was Felix Spiegel in Houston and I had the surgery done at the Twelve Oaks Medical Center.
