Hello, I used this group for my lapband-not this doctor but I was out only one day and back to work on Monday. The band did not work for me and am looking into a revision to the sleeve but because I have tricare I will need to use a military facility. Anyway, I had no problems with southwest bariatrics....

I used them for my sleeve but dr Marquez. I had a great experience with everyone there. The staff is very nice and helpful.

She is great. I have been seeing Kristen the PA since surgery. I really like her too.

I used Dr. Ganta. He performed the single incision through my belly button and I had zero complications. I never needed any pain meds.

I was sleeved in December by Dr. ganta and he is wonderful and so are the people in his office. No problems at all post op. He is at Austin Bariatrics, and they worked very hard with insurance and got me approved quick. Good luck and just do your resesrch.

Dr.Fass in this group did my lap band, which worked amazing for me. He did my lipoma removal, gall bladder removal, lap band removal (horrible slip while 26 weeks after throwing up for days and days due to a gall stone lodged in my duct) and will be sleeving me on 6/28/13. I love him, he always makes me feel listened to and takes time to answer me. His nurse Jenna is a saint and works her butt off. They are amazing.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
