1goodwoman 0 Posted December 3, 2009 Hello, I am considering Lapband surgery. Currently in the process of scheduling 1st consultation. I have selected John Hopkins Bayview Medical Center in Baltimore, MD. However, they have quite a few surgeons that perform the surgery. Does anyone have any experience with any of their surgeons? Also I am concerned about the amount of side effects that have been noted with lap band. Has anyone had damage done to their spleen? What about band slippage, how common is that, and are their any factors that influence band slippage or is it just one of those random things that happen? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
