"I went to a conference on the lap band surgery. I immediately liked Dr. Hipp. He was a larger man then than he is now. I assumed he understood the enjoyment of food. I chose him to be my surgeon for the lap band. He is very professional and reassuring. He explained the procedure in common english and not medical terminology.rn When I visit his office for check ups and fills I can discuss any thing with him. I am a diabetic. I was on medicine and now I am off. I do not regret choosing Dr. Hipp as my doctor. I know that this site steers you to say negative things about your surgeon, but I have never had a negative experience with my surgeon. He takes his time with patients. He will ask questions and answers them in a way that makes you feel comfortable. He is very knowledgeable in his profession. His age was okay with me. I thought that would make him more up to date and familiar on techniques that are being used today. rn"
