12 Surgeon's Practice ID



Recommended Posts

Hello all. I had my surgery on 12/16 and would like to get registered on the realize.com site to start tracking my weight loss. I have the card that came in my band box that has my 16 digit ID. However, I need a 12-digit surgeon's practice id to get registered.

I've called my drs. office repeatedly trying to get the number but nobody seems to know what it is. I even contacted the realize site. The CSR I spoke with was going to try and call the doctor's office himself but he hasn't gotten anywhere either.

Does anyone know what the 12 digit id is for Dr. Cywes in Jacksonville, FL or can someone give me their 12 digit ID so I can please get registered? I'm getting really frustrated with the lack of response from the doctor's office. For the record though, this is the first issue I've had with them.

Thanks in advance!!! :wink_smile:

Since this is a site for the lap band...(although of course open for everyone!) you might not get the response.

Does realize have a chat board for it's users? I'm sure it does...have you tried googling "realize band chat" or some such?

You are of course welcome to post here! Just afraid you may not get the info you need! Good luck!

I like to reading/chatting on this forum. I figured though I'd register on the other site just to have my food journal, get some recipes, things like that. I'm not 100% sure if they have a chat or not. I figured I'd keep my chatting here but be registered for those features over there. I thought some of the bandsters might have an account over there as well for the same reason. :wink_smile:

I don't think you can use another dr's code, since your account gets linked to the dr's office. Try using the search function at the top of the LBT screen and search for posts with Cywes in them. Then you can contact other users here who have the same doctor. Hopefully one of them will still have the code handy.

Hope that helps!

I am not getting this band but I took a look at the website and it says that the physician is supposed to mail you his 12 digit code. Personally if you have a chance when you are out I would stop by the office. It's easy enough for them to ignore you when you are on the phone then when you are there in person.

This website has a forum for realize band here -Realize Band Surgery (NEW!) - Lap Band Surgery and Lap Band Discussion Forum Check here if you have not done so already.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
