Thanks to all for the feedback. I went to Dr. Van Wagner's seminar and then had consult today. His staff has been so helpful and tolerant of my calls and questions!

WannaBe: I have found this group as well and plan to go to a seminar April 8. Unfortunately I was not able to reach anyone who could provide basic information (only get a tollfree number and they offer to send info). I did see that they offer the single incision technique. Will you have that? Do they perform the procedure at either DePaul or St. Joseph in Kirkwood? Thank you for your help! I think I am going to find this website very useful!

Allea: How was your experience? Did you get the lapband or realize band? How much weight have you lost so far? shrinkingcjk: I am actually attending Dr. Wagner's seminar tomorrow night. Please share your experience after your surgery! Thank you for the information!

Hello, I am new to this and am not sure where to start. Does anyone have experience with any surgeons in the St. Louis area? And what about the single incision technique vs. standard? Thanks for your help!
