would like to share this experi. (lap band)
I would like to add that I found out that the one of the doc's at that place is a Psychiatrist part time somewhere else. In that case I'm wondering what came first the chicken or the egg....oh...I'm bad...
Trust me. I'm running. It feels gr8 to share. I hope someone who is still on the fence about sleeve vs band reads this thread.

I swear you had my original surgeon! Completely did not want to talk about sleeve, only talked up Lap- Band, told me I needed the Band and when I asked if he would do a sleeve on me he said he didnt feel I was heavy enough...Forget that!
Glad you did your research! PPat yourself on the back.

could be the same one...I knew something was up when he said,yeeeaah we do sleeves here but.... Sleeves are reltively new and have become quite popular, especially with young people...but the band is great and has shown to be really sucessful in Europe. Mean while nothing about the band is on the brochure,website or questionaire. I choosed them first because they were one of the many hospitals my insurance accepts and the closest too home, needless to say I''m heading to the city now... I can travel.
