Has anyone had any experiences with Dr. LePort in Fountain valley? How did you like him? How long was the pre-op process? Are his procedures similar to Dr. Oliak? I am waiting to set up my first consultation with LePort and I'm having second thoughts on my surgeon choice...:drool:

He is an awesome surgeon. He did my surgery and took precautions during the 1st so that I would not get any kind of infection. He is very nice and my scars are looking pretty good too and it's just been a month since my band was placed. :smile2:

@Wicked...,

That's who I'm consulting with as well. He comes highly recommended from my insurance company. In addition, the receptionist at my PCP's office went to him many years ago and loved him.

I'd love to hear what you think. I go for my H&P there tomorrow morning and am hoping for a good experience as well.

Dr Leport is doing my band on Monday. My insurance company sent me to him and I'll be eternally grateful. The Center for Obesity is a Center of Excellence and provides education and support throughout the process. If you like, I'll post again after my surgery!

Good luck to you!

I don't like that the group doesn't allow you to meet with the surgeon before you are approved for surgery. I would like to be able to see if I like the doctor first. That kind of makes me meh about them too.

Hi there! I am getting banded by dr. Leoport's surgeon group! I have met with dr. Kelly Francis and she seems very calm and nice. Dr leport is the same way. We are friends on facebook! I highly recommend this group to anyone in the orange county area

I was just banded yesterday 2/2/12 at Orange Coast Memorial with Dr. LePort's group. My surgeon was Dr. Kenneth Tieu and he was absolutely great, calm, professional, open to anything I had to say and willing to talk and listen as long as I wanted to talk. The center has been great from the beginning. I would absolutely recommend LePort's group!
