Lap Band experience at Lahey Clinic,Burlington,Mass.

I wanted to write this because I know before my Lap Band surgery last Friday,I spent months reviewing blogs. I really wanted to hear from patients who had the same surgery I was having,at the same place.

I had my surgery last Friday 12/21/12 and could not have been more impressed with the whole process.

Everyone was on top of everything,attentive and kind from the Pre-Op Nurses to the Doctors.

The overnight Nurses and assistant I had were so kind and had great attitudes every time I hit that beeper!

My one bad experience was the day Nurse on the day I was discharged...no personality and not on top of anything.

However how can I complain when up to that point everyone was so wonderful!

The staff there provides great care,are very specific on what needs to be done post-op and have not problem answering all the questions I asked.

I had Dmitry Nepomnayshy and he came to see me Pre-Op and was very nice.

So if your a Lahey patient and not sure if you should get this done there....you can relax and know they will take good care of you.

Glad your experience was good. I had mine at the BI, Boston. One nurse isn't too bad, hopefully you won't have her ever again to deal with. As long as the doctor was great.
