Listen, it isnt a case of "if you cant say anything good dont say anything at all" its a case of "this person is going to squirrell around with my innards and if anyone else has gone through him or these folks, please post your experiences?

I am also one of his patients. Saw him the first time back in May of last year. Right now I am waiting on insurance approval. Been through the 6 mos supervised diet, psych eval, saw nutritionist and had physical. He is awesome and Lap Band Solutions is great too. I call them all the time to check on paperwork and they never seem like they are bothered that I call. Nothing but good things to say about both.

Hi! Its nice to meet you! It really is!

I went through the first consult with the American Institute of Gastric Banding where they took an EKG and a basic physical, and I have the referrals to the Psych eval, the nutritionalist, the sleep apnea test, and the bloodwork. Im a little confused as to what to do next.

Tomorrow is Monday and Im planning on spending the morning on the phone with everyone making appointments. One call is supposed to be to his office to set up the meeting with him.

Im hoping this week will be productive.

      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.
