  1. Hi, How about trying Dr, Alan Geiss Head of North Shore LIJ. 516-496-2752. If you can call him or go to one of his meeting to talk to him in person. He is a very kind man and very nice people working in his office. Good luck to you. Mary
  2. Hang in there you took the first step to good health. Baby steps and soon all those steps will pay off. I hope to be walking on the same path as you once all the paper work is done. I wish you well and Happy Walking. Stay well. Mary
  3. Hello from Long Island NY I use to live in London and Surrey now living in NY. I hope to get my lap band next month. I'm here if you wish to chat. It is so true that this is a very good group. I wish you well. Mary
  4. Hi JonathanNY Just want to say I think you are doing a great job hang in there. Mary
  5. Hello Sharp, I have been to see Dr, Geiss and have to say his staff are so nice and do the best they can to help you. I feel so bad at times when I have to keep calling to see if all my paper work has come in. Dr Geiss has a woman that works for him called Jenifer who is so understanding when I call. I can only say that you will be in good hands with this Dr and his staff.
  6. Hi, I two have a skin problem and use Cetaphil Gentle cleansing bar. Great stuff for Dry Sensitive Skin. This is even used on Baby's. You can get this from any CVS or most food store's. Check out the web site and you can down load coupons that you can use on the product. At CVS if you buy something and don't like it bring it back and you will get your money back. He has nothing to loose. I wish him well.
  7. I think it was well done not pushy in any way. I think if more people heard this then they would be kinder to those getting Lap Band.
  8. May I ask is your Dr, Dr Geiss? I too am doing all the testing and hope to get the Band soon. I wish you well and hope we can talk more about what the Lap Band surgery is like before and after. I wish you well
