LAP-BAND Patients

  1. My sister is strongly considering Dr. Byrne. I live in Ft. Worth and was banded last November 2007. I am so thankful I did. I've lost over 60lbs so far. Feeling more and more energetic. My sister and I both know that the quality and length of our lives depend on losing our weight. She is considering gastric bypass and lapband. Everything I have read about Dr. Byrne is impressive. She told me that he prefers gastric by-pass instead. Did he indicate this procedure was preferrable for you? And if so, why did you choose Lap-band? Any other thoughts about your experience would be so helpful. Thanks.
