Looking for the right Doctor

I live in San Diego. Does anyone have an opinion on the following facilities?

Weight Loss Centers based in Beverly Hills, CA

Gastric Banding Center in San Diego, CA

I'm not sure if it the same one advertized on all the billboards, but if it is....RUN!!! I told a friend (lawyer) and he told me some horror stories about them. He did some research with his colleages and recommended Dr. Carson D. Liu. Dr. Liu did my surgery and I am truly greatful that I switched. He turned out to be the best!!

Here is his # 310-208-0474.

Good Luck on your search!

At any rate avoid 1800-GET SLIM, aka WEIGHT LOSS CENTERS, aka TOP SURGEONS.

Why? numerous reasons … they had casualties, the way they do it, it is unavoidable, I went to their consultation and decided to do it with someone else, no one listens to what you have to say, you are not examined by a surgeon.

In general the atmosphere is very unpleasant and uncomfortable. I am 5 months after and very happy about my decision to do it with someone else.
