wrestlersmom 0 Posted October 19, 2007 Has anyone out there had the Lap-band done in Asheville, Hickory, or Charlotte North Carolina? I have checked out Asheville and Hickory and I think most of what they do is a scam to make money for the Psc. Evaluation Doctor and charge big money for the Medically supervised diet.. HELP!!! Tell me what to do?? Thanks, Rose You can email me at Wrestlersmom125@bellsouth.net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jshcnmt 0 Posted October 19, 2007 Hi there. I just registered for this site today. I saw your post, and wanted to reply to it. I had my lap band surgery on Monday, 10-15-07. My surgeon is Dr. Gary Robinson in Statesville, NC. The ENTIRE process has been excellent. I started the process in August with the seminars. In September, I had my pre-op evals. The total cost for all evals (psych, nutrition, and surgical) was $610. I self paid for my surgery, because my insurance would not pay for it. I would HIGHLY recommend that you talk to Dr. Robinson's lap band coordinator if you are considering the surgery. If you would like their contact info, let me know. Good Luck!
