Dr. Farhan Flint, Michigan

[snuffy65 1]

Anyone use Dr. Farhan and/or had experience with Hurley Bariatrics? I am in the middle of getting cleared from my insurance company. So far so good. I talked with Dr. Farhan and so far the staff there seems nice. Just looking for anyone that has gone through with the band at hurley and maybe specifically with Dr. Farhan.

Thanks in advanced!

I had surgery at Hurley with Dr. Farhan in Nov 07. I only talked with him once, after surgery. They are kind of impersonal, but I havent had any problems at all, and have lost 45lbs since Nov 29. The support groups are nice, everyone from pre surgery to years out post surgery go at the same time. Its nice to hear from everyone.

Thats good to hear! I only been at the office once. I see most people haven't talked to him until after the surgery. I met him my first day down there. He was pleasant. You go to the support groups in flint? I live in saginaw so too long for me to drive me thinks.

they have people from all over go there, I'm sure you could get into a support group closer, (really important, you will learn so much!) someone on here could probably help. I didnt meet him before, because I was supposed to have a different surgeon. Once you have the surgery your appointments will be with the nurses and technitions (sp?) at the center. If you know what kind of band you want be sure to talk it over with them before your surgery. I didnt know the difference, and got the 4cc band. I have been doing ok, but I wish I would have known more about it.
