Has anyone gone to Dr. Umbach in Las Vegas, NV for their sleeve?

I will be going to Dr. Umbach for my surgery. I would love to hear if anyone else has had him do their surgery and what their experience was.

I had my surgery on 2-19-13 and have my post op apt on Monday. I absolutely love the Dr and everyone in his office are very caring and awesome. I have not 1 complaint about them or the way he did my surgery. I wish I lived in Vegas so I could go to the support meetings.

Have you started going to him yet?

I have not gone to him yet, but I have been dealing with Krystina in the office. I am self pay and I am waiting for a settlement to come through. Once it does I will pay the deposit and get on the schedule. I live in Las Vegas so it will be convenient and his price isn't too bad without going to Mexico.

I haven't heard anything about the Support Group, but I guess I will as I move closer. I would definitely be interested in it.

I am glad that everything went well. What facility does he do the surgery in? Does he have his own or is it done at a hospital. I guess I forgot to ask Krystena about that. Any information is helpful. Thanks, Annie

I am going to Mexico for mine.

He did my surgery out of North Vista Hospital and them also I have nothing but good to say about them. My husband was also pleased all the way around with my care and Dr's attitude. He really liked him and the office staff.

Thank you Mini Me, that makes me feel better. I have heard of North Vista Hospital and I will look it up to see where it is in relation to where I live.

Thank you again and I will keep in touch.

Annie
