Dr. Robert Pinnar - LOVE Dr. Pinnar's Office



Recommended Posts

I was scheduled to go to a seminar with Dr. Pinnar on the 23rd of this month, but his office is SO FAR from me. I live in Waldorf. So I found Dr. Brian Long at Sibley in N.W., and I am going to a seminar at Sibley on Saturday. I am glad to hear more good things about Dr. Pinnar and I will keep my options open and see how I feel about Dr. Long after Saturday. Good Luck to you!

I absolutely ADORE Dr. ROBERT Pinnar's office! Paul is the first doc I have ever looked forward to see to get stuck by a needle. :rolleyes:

Sue is also great and full of fantastic information, and Shara greets you with a smile.

I would highly recommend them for your WLS consideration!

I was banded May 8th with Dr Pinnar and Paul. I just love them and their whole staff.

Happyme2009, for me Dr Pinnars office is a hike also (about 25 miles) I live in Kingstowne. but I did MUCH research on Lapband doctors and I decided that for me, I will travel to Dr Pinnars office reguardless of the miles. And I have not regretted once. Good luck with which ever doctor you choose, in the end its about getting healthy and we are:)

For anyone deciding on a doctor, go to the lapband website and check out their experience and qualifications. You cant go wrong with Robert Pinnar and his staff.

I TOTALLY agree! I LOVE this office and all the people who work there. They make getting stuck with a needle fun!! I feel like I am going to see members of my family when I arrive! I just could not be more pleased! THIS is the place to get your life back through weight loss!

I was banded by Dr. Robert Pinnar's son, Eric. He left his father's office and let me tell you, because of Sue and Paul, I transferred myself to Dr. Robert's office. After you are banded you don't see the surgeon that much, but the support staff is phenomenal! Paul does the fills and Sue is in the office for your check-ups/weigh in. I love them both more than I can even say!

I live in Dale City, VA (about 40 miles each way) and would travel twice as far to Reston to see Paul and Sue. The office is excellent and well worth the drive.

NOTE: I am not knocking Dr. Robert Pinnar, he's amazing as well! :-)

      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. 🤞
