LAP-BAND Patients

  1. I have been thinking of getting the lap band, but since have been looking into the VSG. My sister had the lap band several years ago and lost 60 lbs, but has gained most of it back. Does anyone know whether or not Tricare Standard covers this procedure. I know they cover the lap band, but I think I would prefer the Sleeve. Any help will be much appreciated. Oh, I live in the San Diego, Ca area.
  2. I am almost done with all of the preliminary exams and was wondering if anyone is familiar with this surgeon. He works at the same clinic as Dr. Atul Madan. Would appreciate any feedback possible before I make my decision. Thank you!
