Hey y'all? Does someone have a recommendation for a lap band doctor in DFW? Specifically the Grapevine/Southlake area?

Thanks!!

Hello:

I live in Saginaw and will be banded by Dr. Marsden on May 25th. He's actually done 2 of my friends and they have had FANTASTIC results. I believe he is conducting a seminar at "The Surgery Center of Hurst" tomorrow night @ 7 pm.

I met someone on this message board a while back and she is using him as well. We've met in peron and she is a jewel. Good luck and welcome to lapband land!

I am also using Dr. Marsden in 7 days. He has more than one office. I used Lap Band Solutions for my initial consultations and insurance stuff.

I live in the Dallas Area. I used Dr Cribbins in Plano. I can't say enough good things about him and his staff :)

Davyna,

Dr. Powell is SO nice!!! The day of my surgery, my surgeon was nowhere to be found and Dr. Powell came and talked with me. Really calmed my nerves!

Everyone is doing such a great job!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
