WLS Informational Seminar
Jan 04, 2010
Tonight was the informational seminar.
I'll just get my negativity out of the way:
I was thuroughly unimpressed with the fact that my registration request did not actually get processed (no one who signed up online had their information process through), and I was un-impressed that the gal (Karen) who runs the insurance information and schedules initial appointments was not at the seminar. The gal who gave the testimonial was a little dour, and off-putting.
On the brighter side, Dr. Oh has a wicked sense of humor (perhaps a little on the morbid side...right where I like it), and gave a thurough explaination of each of the procedures and their pros and cons. After all the research I'd done I was opting for the DS surgery, but after the seminar, I think I could totally rock the Lapband.
I cannot believe all the costs involved....I consider it an heavy investment into a longer, much more successful life.
