Anyone else used/using this surgeon? I feel pretty good about my decision to have him band me, but I'd like to reach out and see what everyone else has to say...

Hi , my name is Shannon..a good friend went to him and was happy..she actually recommended him to me but he is no longer taking our insurance..so I am looking into Dr. Baker. Good Luck!!

I have a friend of a friend who used Dr. Baker and swears by him, too! So looks like you'll be in good hands, as well.

I am looking into using Dr Wellborn. I have already been to his seminar and feel pretty good about him. I will go to Dr Bakers seminar, too, sort of shopping around.

I used Dr. Wellborn and have been so pleased. Two of my friends used him before me and recommended him. My cousin is trying to get approved through his insurance and, when approved, will use Dr. Baker (because Dr. Wellborn doesn't take his insurance. I have heard good things about Dr. Baker.

I chose Dr. Wellborn because of recommendations, insurance, & because I LOVE the fact that everyone on his staff (with the exception of him and his wife) has been banded and they know what you are feeling from first hand knowledge.

Isn't it great that there are 2 well respected (& I'm sure more, but this thread only has mentioned two so far) bariatric surgeons in Little Rock with extensive lap band experience?! We are fortunate. Good luck on your decision. I don't think you can go wrong with either one.

i ended up getting banded by dr. wellborn on 5/6/11. i haven't regretted it a bit. i also shopped around, but settled on him because of his experience and his staff. it's been amazing having nurses who have been through it. it's like having mentors who just happen to be health care professionals

Congratulations on your May surgery! I am glad you have found Dr. Wellborn and his staff to be as wonderful as I have. There is a great deal of comfort in knowing the nurses and staff have been through everything you are going through. I have been so pleased with them and their care. good luck on your continued success!
