Blessed_gemini 0 Posted March 3, 2007 I'm new to this and want to here from anyone who is having surgery or have had surgery with Southeast Bariatrics. I'm doing all my pre-op testing and hope to be finished by the end of the month. I cant wait to have the surgery. It seems like the more I read all the sucess stories, the more I really want this. Tell me about your experience..how long did it take from seminar to surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrs Sabre 1 Posted June 2, 2008 I'm assuming you are talking about Souteast Bariatrics in Charlotte, NC? I had my surgery two years ago and absolutely love Dr. Voellinger and his staff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blessed_gemini 0 Posted June 3, 2008 Congratulations! Well its been a while since I've been on here. I did have my surgery on 7/17/07 with Dr. Voelinger in Charlotte, however less than a month later I found out that I was pregnant:ohmy: I got to admit I did have mixed emotions because I tried for so long without success due to polycystic ovarian syndrome. Anyway i continued with the pregnancy and now I have a beutiful healthy 6 week old baby boy. Now it's time to get back to my weight loss journey. Since it was less than a month after surgery, I didn't even get my first fill, so it's like starting from the very beginning again. I've seen people who had surgery the same day as i did, and they have lossed like over 70lbs. I can't weight to get there. i just hope it won't be to difficult to follow the band rules again. Pray for me guys! i'm going tomorow to schedule an apointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
