OMG, I would never use them. My friend was sleeved on 1/2014 worst care ever!!

I used Dr Stephen Hamn at Plano of Presby when I was banded in 2005. I loved him and his staff.

I heard that the aftercare isn't good -and fills may not be covered by insurance?

My surgeon was dr.snow. I sure hope insurance covers the fills lol

I was banded at true results by Dr.B. My only issue is seeing different aftercare people every time you go. It's hard to build a relationship with them. All of my fills are covered for the first year.

ut oh!! I just had my consult with TR. Dr. Snow will be banding me. I hope some others will chime in with their experiences. =(

My experience has been awesome. Maybe that girl didn't have good insurance. My insurance covers everything. . Don't worry darla

I was banded on May 9th at true results Richardson by Dr. Marsden. I didn't have any issues nurses in surgicare center were really nice.

I was banded at True results dr B also.. I was recommended by a friend that had phenomenal results.. I agree with the aftercare I was banded 12-12-13 and I don't like the inconsistency of the aftercare personell they all say different things.. I am down 20lbs though

I was banded at TR Richardson in June of 2013. I have LOVED my Aftercare - with one exception. There is one PA that is a small Asian gal. She is super sweet, but the two fills she gave me hurt like hell! I simply asked and they put a note in my file and I don't get her anymore. The other PA fills have been almost pain free.

In one year I've lost 178 pounds. They are always easy to get an appointment that fits my schedule. I would highly recommend their office.

If you have any other questions - let me know.

I was banded 12/26/13 at True Results with Dr. B. And I've lost 45 lbs. I love everybody. I see the same pa almost every time. I guess that's a coincidence. Insurance is covering everything. Highly recommend. They work with my night shift schedule and get me in early so I can go after work and get right home to bed. ❤️

i had my lap band done by dr Nicholson at Richardson. the surgery went great with no problems, but i just went back for my 2 week post op visit, i saw dr carlton-- and was rushed through the appt. he didn't even look at my incision until i stopped him and asked him to check it. i had a lot of questions that didn't get answered!!

I didn't have a post op appointment until I was 3 weeks out. I went for my 3 week appointment on Monday, got my first fill, and I'll be back in 2 weeks for my second fill.

I never even saw my doctor, just a nurse, then a nurse practitioner who did my fill.
