I just got back from Colorado yesterday. Dr. Kirshenbaum did my lap band on Wednesday August 1st. He is tops in my book. He is so compassionate. His price is so low because he wanted to be competitive with the price in Mexico. It is affordable and worth any of you searching for a doctor and a place to have the surgery done. The Crown Pointe Hospital in Parker CO. is like brand new. I would rate it a 10 on a scale of 1-10. The nurses and the care I recieved while I was there is not to be compared with ones I have even worked in as a nurse. The cost is $9950.00 for everything. That even includes the price for returning for your fills. Dr. Kirshenbaum explained everything to me and made me feel comfortable about my concerns. He will explain to you why his cost is so low. He is not in it to make money for himself. He loves doing this to help people that really need the help. I don't know how I could trust any other doctor as I trusted him. He has done (a bunch) of lap bands. I do not remember the number he told me. He was also the first surgeon in Colorado to do laproscopic surgery. He just loves doing it. He gave me his cell phone number and told me to call him at any hour of the day or night if I needed him. He will even be glad to talk to your doctor where ever you live. He will do anything he can to help you. He called me on his own on Thursday just to check on me. My experience there was excellent and I would recommend him to anyone. Just check it out before you go to Mexico or anywhere else.

If anyone has any questions regarding Dr. Kirshenbaum don't hesitate to contact me.

Marty, I agree with you. Besides that they get to see and experience beautiful Colorado. :)

I am to be banded by Dr. Kirshenbaum in October and I am sooo looking forward to it.. It is so uplifting to hear such great things about the Dr. you choose to do your surgery. Thanks for the great reference.

Be well and take care,

Bobbie

        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.

      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!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
