Lap Band after care



Recommended Posts

I had a Lap Band 7 years ago. The Dr that did it doesn't take my Insurance anymore and most important, he lets Medical Assistants do his patients fills.

I need to see a Dr that will take me as a patient. I have never had proper after care. I am now vomiting a lot and it is brown bile. Very bitter.

Does anyone know of a Dr in the Dallas area that will take me as a patient? I have Aetna PPO Insurance.

thanks,

Monica

You could try Dr. Victor Gonzalez in Dallas. He is very thorough and professional. His number is 972-566-7180.

RUN, don't walk to Dr. Richard Benevides in Richardson TX - in 3 years he never let a MA touch my port. Only himself or PA's (Nurse Practitioners) He's at Richardson Surgery Center. Call him right away!!!!

Dr. Louis Fox is my doc and he is great. I havent had a fill yet, but he has an aftercare program and uses all kinds of factors to decide if you need a fill.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
