I used Dr. B on May 3rd 2012 for my lap band surgery and I found him and his staff very caring. He answered all my questions and even after my surgery I had him paged and he called me back and answered all my questions. I loved him and I feel like I am on the road to a wonderful healthy life.

I had my surgery May 3rd as well. I drink Protein shakes, have sugar free pudding, liquid mashed potatoes and sugar free Popsicles. It is hard but I just keep saying it will be worth it in the end. Good luck and I am here if you want to exchange info and talk. Courtney
