Perhaps there are many who think it is too good to be true.

If it is true, blessings to you and those on your team who have the love of medicine and ambition to HEAL.

I also agree that blessings should be sent your way. It's just too damn bad that you have to be a US citizen. Why do all the good contests and giveaways ALWAYS have to be exempt to canadians? So unfortunate ....:lol:

It's been a legal nightmare just to keep it complaint with the laws of the US!

Perhaps someday it can be a goal, a vision, to select a region through doctors willing to donate their services, and offer one person a chance for a new life. A scholarship of sorts. I believe in giving back. I'm sure I'm not alone.

Again...best to you doctor. Things that are truly worth having never come easy.

Oh, man. Not such good timing on that one. BUT you know they could promote it as "NO FOOLING! It's FREE. "

Dr. V I hope you are getting good response on your freebie. I'm thinking how much I wish someone was doing this when I found out insurance would not cover mine ( '06)(but my path went well in the end). It can cause desperate and depressive feelings on top of dealing with the weight and other health issues. Again, thank you to your group for giving back. I hope your goodness returns to you threefold.

Good Morning Dr. V,

My name is Sherrita Coleman and I want to have the lap band surgery, but was denied by my insurance. I had no other options and was inquiring about any more free giveaways you are generously offering.

I am a single parent and have been struggling with my weight all my life. I am researching and working on how to incorporate a healthy lifestyle everyday. I would be so grateful for this oppurtunity of a lifetime.

Thank you for your time,

Sherrita Coleman

      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
