Anyone here in Southeast GA?

Hi everyone! Is anyone here in or around Savannah, GA? I'm having my surgery on August 29 and am just looking to meet some local people that have either already had surgery or will be having it in the future!

Hi and welcome. I'm a couple of hours away in Douglas (coffee County). I've had my band since last October. Dr. Bagnato over in Albany put mine in. If you go to the USA local support groups and go under Georgia you'll find others with the band. I'm not sure if there's many from Savannah, but quite a few up around Atlanta. If you go to the special interest groups (I think) you'll find a link for Bagnato and you'll find lots of people there who would be glad to talk with you. I believe there's one in the group who might have had her band in Savannah and is now living in Tifton.

Good luck on your band - I love mine. If you have any questions, fire away. Someone will answer them and I'll do my best too.

I just moved back to Savannah a couple months ago. I was banded Monday 8/25 in San Antonio, Tx just cuz I already had all my insurance requirements done and gotten my approval for there. I'm looking into Memorial Bariatrics for my aftercare.

Where did you get your surgery done? How was your surgery? How are you feeling?
