Hey BooKoo,

I was banded a week ago today in Texarkana with Dr.'s Rachael Keilin and Ron Hekier. I AM SOOOO VERY PLEASED! Their website is www.pswecare.com and their phone number is (903)794-0022. They have done over 250 lapbands, the after-care is fabulous (inclusive of a support group), they have a real "bulldog" of a gal that works with the insurance companies, and currently they have a cash price of around $15,000. I think you will be pleased with them. Oh...they also hold seminars every other Tuesday evening at Wadley Regional Medical Center...give them a call and see what you think!

Good Luck!

I had my band with dr. Benavides, out of Richardson/Dallas area. He has done several thousand bands, he works at the Surgery Center of Richardson, TX. They specialize on only doing lapbands. Thats all, nothing else.

Easy to find too, since I am from Okla., they were just a couple miles from the big hwy 75 and Dallas central Park expressway? Very easy.
