  1. Thank you for your response. I am in the test phase and was concerned about scar tissue. At the seminar i was told that it will probably add an additional 30mins to the procedure but the recovery time should be the same as standard banding.
  2. Last year I was told by my doctor that insurance does not cover this procedure. Do you know if this is still the case?
  3. Thanks for your response. How was your friends experience with the band over bypass? Were there any scar tissue issues? Was there a special endoscopy procedure
  4. Has anyone had BOB? If so, what was your experience. Did the surgeon have issues with scar tissue? Were you able to have the procedure Lap or Open?
  5. Have you found a surgeon that will perform the Lap Band procedure over the Bypass? Hope you had success
