Where did you get your sleeve?

So where were you sleeved?

I haven't either. I'm still doing lots of research. I'm leaning toward Dr. Curry and JourneyLite out of Cincinnati at this point. I'm a self-payer, so I need something I can afford, yet someone I'm comfortable with. Plus, I'd like someone in the midwest that I could follow up with if need be.

I'm having mine at St. Vincent Charity in Clev. with Dr. Ben-Meir. I've heard great things and I feel comfortable with him. My surgery is in two days and I'm getting a bit nervous now. I'm excited but just nervous. I honestly still haven't quite mastered this website yet. I'm still learning though.

Good luck with yours!

Dr. Ben-Meir did my surgery a week ago last Wed. I have no complications (knock on wood) and the staff in his office as well as the 6th fl. of the hospital were wonderful!!!!

Dr. C. Joe Northup at Mercy Fairfield did my surgery. It's just outside of Cincinnati. He and his staff are AWESOME! I highly recommend him. I've had no complications and they have been very good about addressing any concerns I have had.

I am going through Dr. Northup with Mercy Healthy Weight Solutions out of Fairfield, OH (Suburb of Cincinnati). My surgery is set for October 4th. I am very excited. Dr. Northup and his staff have been wonderful so far! I would highly recommend!
