New to site. Hello to all.....

[Guest nikntyme]

Hi. My name is Nik. I finally had a chance to slow down and say hello. I am having the lap band placed on Tuesday Nov. 9. This is a great forum and I have learned so much about the procedure and lifestyle post banding. I am a night nurse and work at South Coast Medical Center in Laguna Beach. That is where I am having my surgery. Dr. Dallahl and Dr. Quebbeman are my surgeons. Thanks to all of you, it seems like one can get never-ending encouragement and support on this site! Talk to you soon!

Good Luck to you! There is lots of support and information on this board, it just takes some reading. Please post and let us know how your surgery goes.

Nik, best of luck to you!! You'll be back outside enjoying your gardening and camping before you know it! Welcome to the beginning of your new life!

Nik, Nov. 9 is almost here! Congratulations. I think it's great that you already know not just your doctors but the medical center before you proceed with the band. Let us know how you're doing after the surgery; I'm sure you'll do well.

Hey Nik

We are neighboors..Im in Mission Viejo

Quebbeman is a great Dr. He was trained by Dr. Ortiz who is my Dr.

Another woman from this board who lives near us had hers last month with Quebbaman. Well maybe we can get together some time. If you have any questions or need any thing just let me know. Good Luck Tomorrow
