Any Port Huron Lap Banders on here??? We've started the process and have our meeting with Dr. Bhesania on the 15th of March. Both hubby and I are looking to have the surgery done..

congrats on the surgery date!!!! That's great! Sue is wonderful. She's one of my favorite people there besides Dr. Boutt!

Did you like Dr. Bhesania? I've met him once and didn't like him at all. Glad I got the doctor I did.

Good luck with Hubby's approval. I wish my hubby would get lapband.

I thought Dr. Bhesania was ok. Doesn't have the personality of Dr. Boutt, but he was fine. And he's darn good, so I'm pleased to have him as my doctor. And yes, Sue was awesome. So was everyone we met there. We were both very impressed. 25 more days til my surgery!!!!!

I was so thrilled that I didn't have to do the protein shake pre op diet. And no protein shakes afterwards either!! Yogurt I can handle.. protein drinks I can't!!

I am too going to be a Port Huron Bandster. My surgery is tommorrow (3-21 at 9:00, am With Dr Boutt who yes is yummy. very easy person to tal k to as well.. Good luck to all the other March bandsters and I'll see you on the onter side .... I'm 5'9 and 250.. I hide my weight well but after tommorrow, I wont be ashamed at all

5 days post op.. is this normal to be hungry?

sure is! Just stick to your yogurt and pudding. Time will fly!

Hey Judy!

I should be working in the OR the day of your surgery!

I just started back to work after a 9 year mommy break and work on the surgical ward.

As a matter of fact, I just sat in on my first lapband today (unless you count my surgery on the 19th but I don't remember it! ) It was absolutely amazing to watch. Dr. Bhesania was the surgeon and today is the first time I've meet him. He seemed pretty nice and loves Aerosmith in the OR!

Anyway, I hope you have a smooth time of it when you're there. I'll keep a look-out for you!

Anyway, I'll be there!

Nope...initials would have been JC. They were running late yesterday and I waited from 8:30 -10:45.. I was done and in recovery by noon.

The wait was for 2 reasons: equipment trauma and a difficult case right before yours. We were behind all day in that room.

They were really nice and gave DH a voucher for $10 for lunch because he had to wait so long. Course they didn't do that for me!! lol Pam was in the OR with me and two other ladies, but I don't remember their names. I don't remember anything after he put the mask on my face.. out like a light!!
