Hes the one I hope to get to do my surgery so I was wondering if anyone used him.

He will be doing my surgery on Oct 24th and I am very excited. I chose him for many reasons but also because he has the lapband and the other Dr. in his office is the one who put it in...also there are several in his office that he has banded...he also does only lap band....so there is no concern that he would try to persuade you to getting gastric..I did all my preop appts this week and started my low carb diet yesterday.

I am also going to be banded by Dr Smith (for many of the same reasons listed by "Godzgurl75").

I really like the fact that he is a LAPBAND "patient" as well as a physician. I think this makes him more sympathetic and understanding of what we are going through.

Not to mention, his whole office staff is awesome! I have never met a more helpful group of people

I attended his seminar on August 28th... went for my initial appointment on September 12th... got my approval from UHC on October 10th... and am scheduled for surgery on November 21st (the day before Thanksgiving).

I was super impressed at how hard the staff at LBS worked to make this happen. I am in a situation at work where I cannot take off any time right now (company just merged with another division and relocated to another town, and no time off is being permitted for anyone)... so, I really needed to have my surgery done the day before Thanksgiving so I could have recovery time without having to take any additional days off work.

Dr Smith and his staff were awesome about making this happen for me

I researched several other local WLS physicians, and did not feel comfortable with any of them until I met Dr. Smith.

You are making a good decision

Everyone I have talked to that is his patient has nothing but good things to say about him (even the few who had complications).
