I met with Dr. Luttrell, my insurance would not cover Dr. Wellborn. Interestingly we have to go to Hope for the surgery.

Think about that Greg. I dont want to lead you astray, but just think about that. There is so much more than getting the Band installed. There is education and followup and AVAILABILITY.Something just doesnt smell right about that set up.

I had a great experience with Dr. Luttrell and in 10 months I have lost 83 pounds! He is doing surgery still so I would highly recommend him! He has a great bedside manner.

On Dr. Wellborn, I know someone who had surgery done with him and he raves on how great it the experience was!

I am considering using Luttrell, was your experience good? and do you have any regrets or issue?

Hey Greg, I would not hesitate about Dr. Luttrell. He is great and so is his staff. Best of luck to you. You can PM me if you want too.

I had my band done on 4/13/09 by Dr. Luttrell in Hope. Everything has gone really well. I am very impressed with Dr Luttrell, his staff and with the staff in Hope. I don't regret my decession for a moment. There has never been ANY wait to reach Dr Luttrell or Erin.

After some previous posting on this thread, I went with Doctor Luttrell. I was banded in Hope on March 16th. He is a wonderful doctor, good at making sure you are set, not he is set. Both him and Erin are very understanding and easy to talk to and I am so glad I went with him. I am down 50 plus pounds, have moved from a 46 to 42 inch waist and feel great. So if you are thinking about who to use, you might want to consider Dr. Luttrell. He has group the last Thursday of the month and I have been to two of them and both time he was there to make sure all questions are answered. Great Doctor and Great Support.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
