In The Midwest? Doctor Recommendation



Recommended Posts

After successfully going through the Lap Band surgery and meeting with my surgeon several times, I'd be remiss if I didn't spend a moment sharing my fortune.

I am a former writer (now loving mom :) ) on issues of patient care and patient satisfaction. Having published in some surgical magazines and such I am acutely aware of the importance of finding good care and frankly it's not that easy to come by.

I was fortunate enough to come onto this site and Obesity Help and see the postings of a Dr. C...and I'm thinking what doctor takes his time to come out to websites and answer...so I think to myself a smart doctor, one who knows how to do effective marketing. But I gotta tell ya I meet this guy and he cares for me for a couple weeks and I realize it's not about marketing...it's about giving a shit...sorry for the directness :phanvan

Whether you're flying or driving distance I highly recommend the surgeon Dr. C otherwise known as Dr. Trace Curry. www.thebanddoctor.com In addition, to his exemplary care, I also experienced outstanding care from everyone in the hospital where he practices...lucky them...lucky him.

Sorry for the sales pitch, but if I was researching and wanted the best I'd wanna know all the opportunities and possibilities and I think you can't go wrong here.

Dr. C is my doc too! He and his staff are terrific!!!! On Monday I completed my psych eval and paid the program fee. Charity told me to check in later in the week to see about the filing being done for insurance approval. I couldn't wait any longer than Wednesday night and emailed Tracy. She replied 20 min. later and said she'd filed that day! OMG! Not only was I surprised to get a response after office hours, but that she'd gotten my filing in so quickly. They're the BEST here in Cincinnati!

:clap2:

He is very nice, he posts here also. I have learned a lot from him, he seems to really care, even about us, total strangers. ~Mandy

(Dr. Trace Curry) That's my doc too. I'm to be banded on December 22nd. I have to say so far I've been nothing but impressed.

Dr. Curry is my aftercare doctor as well, he is awesome. I was weary of going to anyone "local" and really wanted to go back to Dr. Ortiz but could not afford a trip to Tijuana every few weeks. I decided to visit with Dr. Curry for my first fill and was so impressed with his level of expertise and honesty that I will not go anywhere else. It is nice to have a Dr that cares.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
