Hi!

I'm considering getting a lap band procedure. I am currently looking into two dr.'s:

Dr. Spivak Houston, TX

Dr. Speigel Houston, TX

Has anyone had a good experience with either of these docs?

Thanks

Julie

I have heard great thinks about Dr. Spivak. I didn't use him but on the boards I have heard great things. You may want to start a thread specific to his name.

Wait!! There are many threads already about these two doctors. Use the search function and put in one of their names, you should find good info.

Go to the blue tool bar about 1/3 way down from the top of the page, click on "Search" then click "Advanced Search" and then on the left type in Spivak (or type in Spiegel, or whatever you want to know about) and use the pull-down box to select "thread titles" This way you will only get results of thread that are specifically about that topic.

Here's a partial list of threads related to Spivak:
