:eek:Hello, just signed up. Will be banded on Aug 25. I've lost 8 pounds thus far. Very excited and a little scared. My doc is David Elliott - Richmond Surgical Group. Anyone else banded by Dr. Elliott?

Yes! As amatter of fact my surgery date with Dr. David Elliot is in late September. So far so good, I've been impressed with the care and service I have received. I have only been on this site myself for about 3 weeks and have met some nice people. Hope you are having the same experience as I am.... I can't wait! I am looking forward to this change in my life, and getting through the rough couple of weeks..

Congradulations!!!!:angry:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
