Topic: RE: Newbie and debating RNY or Lap Band
 Hi Samantha, Dr. Searles did my surgery when he worked with Dr. Todd and he was wonderful.

I had RNY because at the time ABC was not doing bands.  I agree that you should talk to Dr. Searles about RNY or the DS.  I have several online friends who are so happy with their DS and have not had some of the struggles I had/have with my RNY.

Feel free to ask me any more questions.  I am  a military wife too (Coast Guard) and lived in Ketchikan at the time and traveled to Anchorage for my surgery.  I live on Oregon now (well for now) but am so grateful for Dr. Searles and ABC.


Welcome!

Topic: RE: Opinions on Dr. Todd
I love Dr. Todd.  He did my surgery 7.5 years ago.  I'm 20lbs below his goal weight for me.

Topic: RE: OT: Okay, dont flame me.. Alaska question
It depends on where in AK you are. Go to www.google.com and type in Anchorage or Fairbanks AK and you will get all kinds of info on Alaska and the darkness there...
Topic: RE: Dr. Michael Todd
I saw him and Dr. Searles. Wow. They are awesome. Get in to see them now before they become too popular! I need to do my preop tests and get insurance approval (not a problem typically with Tricare). I am so excited.
