I am a self pay (insurance would not cover even a penny, due to the bariatrics clause) and wanted as much support as possible. I had a friend who was banded in Scottsdale and got no support or guidance and has not lost any weight. I'm going in for my 1st fill on Jan. 20th as I was just banded on Dec. 4th. I have lost 31 lbs so far. Good luck with your journey to thin.

Dr. deBarros and Dr. Orris were the doctors that banded me. They were a little higher in price, however you get a three year support package with them. I have full access to a dietician and 2 monthly support groups and the rest of the staff is terrific as well. I like being able to call there 24/7 and getting one of the two doctors. When I leave a message or send an email, I'm responded to the same day, except for the weekend. But I could get a doctor if need be. i highly recommend Weight Loss Institute of AZ and they have performed together over 700 bandings. Gives me that warm fuzzy feeling.

I did what you did, but protien shakes made with powder, no slim fast. Have you checked out this doctor's credentials? Every doctor's plan varies a little, but it seems like his varies a lot.
