Hi, My surgeon was also Dr. Steven Britt. I love him and his staff so much. I have recommened at least 3 people to him and one has already had her band. I got banded on Sept. 25th, 2006. I wish i had done this sooner. I feel so much better. I live around the fyffe and rainsville area.

Hi all,

I live in Cherokee so some of you are not too far away from me. I hope to have a surgery date soon. Everything is approved just waiting to be scheduled. I guess by now I should be used to the hurry up and wait thing but I think maybe I could calm down if I just had a date. Then again I will probably freak when I get the date. I guess I am just ready. I started this whole process last October. I had no idea it would take so long.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
