Looking for help with Surgeon in Louisiana

September 21, 2003

I was hoping someone could guide me into the right direction as far as a surgeon in my state that does the lap band, and also accepts cigna ins.(pos) I'm in the pre approval status part of everything, and my current Physician does gastric bypass but not lapband. After talking to the nutritionist on Friday, I no longer think that the gastric is the best choice for me, and that lap band would be better. Thanks in Advance.

There is a great doctor in Baton Rouge that my Dad's niece used, I will call her and get his name for you and post as soon as I can.

Try contacting The Surgical Specialists of Louisiana. My doctor there was Dr. THomas Lavin. He and all of his associates are great people and great doctors. They have offices in Covington and New Orleans.
