You might want to correct your title to banana from babana. I am not sure many know what you are referring to with the misspelling.

I am sorry but I have never heard of a banana surgeon. My doctor does the sleeve gastrectomy proceedure. Is that the same as you are referring to?

Please do not get angry. I was simply trying to help. It threw me off reading it and I have been around for many years and never had heard of a babana or banana surgery.

Apology accepted and thank you for giving me the background on the surgery.

Yes you may have my doctor's info. His name Is Jeffrey Rosen and he is in Downers Grove. Here is the link to his website http://www.lifeweighbariatrics.com/  There are many on the IL board that have had surgery with him.

My doc does them too.  You can look him up here on OH.  His name is Brian Lahmann.  He is in Joliet.
