I have heard good AND bad things about this place. There are lots of threads on this site about Molding Clinic. Do a search here, ull find tons and tons of stuff. I did one on them here when I was starting my search for a doctor too. I believe there are quite a few people here who have used them. Maybe they will post for u too. :)

I used Molding Clinic when I had my band done in March. I had a very positive experience. I went down at the end of April and had my fill also. They did a great job and everyone there at the clinic are very professional. The facilities are clean and I would recommend them to anyone. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions.

I have heard bad things about them; the surgeon took his instruments out of what looked like a tackle box; they dumped this person at the border and have since been unavailable to answer any questions. I advised her to go to the er as due to the risk of infection

IMO it's just not worth the risk...

I was just banded on 11/29 at the Molding Clinic. It was a very positive experience. Everything was spotless, and Celina and the doctors were great. We were booked into a five star hotel, and Celina called me at least once daily. I would recommend this experience for anyone. My husband is VERY picky and a bit neurotic about doctors, and even he was impressed with how everything turned out. It has only been six days, but I feel great. I saw my personal doctor on Friday, and he was impressed with my incisions and the discharge orders.Feel free to send me a private email if you have any specific questions.:D

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
