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 :)

I live in McKinney. Dr Frank Veninga is in Carrollton. Dr Barker in Garland has a good rep. Cribbins in Plano. Provost in Ft Worth, I believe. Seems like there are bunches these days.

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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
