I used Dr. Adam Smith in FW. He has had the procedure himself. No problems so far and he and his office staff are very helpful and professional.

After much, much research, I chose the best in the business, (my opinion) Dr. Robert Sewell in the southlake area. What makes his practice really stand out was not only his experience, but the after care that was included. Great man, changed my life.

2yrs. 6mos post op.

Starting weight of 430, BMI of 56

Now at my 3 times adjusted goal of 195, BMI of 22

Life is soooo good!

My doctor is Dr. Marsden - office in Hurst. Really nice doctor, listens to you, and answers all questions and more! He's done over 3000 lap band procedures, so I felt really comfortable working with him.

Best of luck to you in choosing a doctor!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
