I had my surgery on 4/17/08. I was home by 1pm that afternoon. The surgery center was excellent. My OB refered him as well. I have lost 18 lbs and I feel better than ever. I went back to work the following Monday,but I have an easy job in a law firm.My sister had the surgery the week after and her kids are still babies so she had to have some help with them, lifting and carrying them but she is fine now. I am type II diabetic and have almost gotten off all my medication. I did not and still do not eat very much and should be getting more protien. Learning what to eat is the hardest part. You will be sore for about a week and the gas was stuck in my back, I walked a lot right a way. I guess that helped?? Good luck and keep me posted. Where do you live? I am in Cumming. Amy

I shopped around too but mostly for a Dr. I liked that also had a good record with this surgery. The difference in price is I did not have it done in a hospital and it was out paient. I was in good health and it worked out great. Dr. daly has informational meetings at Northside. I did not go to those, I met with him in his office on the referal of one of my other Dr.'s. the whole process only took a month. Amy

I was banded on 4/18/08 by Dr. Daly at the Health South Facility. I am self pay and this was a lot cheaper than going to Northside. It was a great! You don't see him much but I have talked to many of his paients and am pleased with my decision.
