I am from Clinton Township, MI. Surgery date to have lap band removed and replaced with gastric sleeve is September 20, 2011! So excited for the next phase in this weight loss journey.

I am from Port Huron and I am due to be sleeved at St John Oakland Hospital on October 10, 2011.

Saginaw Michigan here. I was sleeved on 5-29-12. As of today I am down 25 lbs post op. (just over 4 weeks) and a total of 39.5 pre and post. I was sleeved at Hurley in Flint by Dr. Farhan. Loving it so far. Knocking wood but so far no complications at all. Feeling good!

Lori my surgery will be at hurley with dr.farhan also. It seems like hes pretty much an expert. I am a litte worried though, because I have a few acquaintances from nursing school who work on the burn unit/bariatric icu at Hurley and they all say they would never get the surgery. They also say the bariatric patients are treated poorly. How was your experience there? I assume my surgery will be in September as I just have to do my psych appointment next week and then I'm done with my requirements. I'm happy to have found someone who had dr. Farhan and is happy with him :)

MichiganDer here!!!! Saginaw area!!!!
