From what I've read on this forum, alot of bariatric docs don't like to take on patients that other docs have operated on. Not sure why, but this seems to be pretty prevalent. Do you know if there are any other doctors you can go to?

You shouldn't have to deal with a doctor you can't be comfortable with. Not to say that a doctor can't be straightforward with a patient, but there are ways to go about it and berating someone is not how you get results.

Good luck and let us know what happens.

if you are not comfortable w/ your surgon for whatever reason, you have the right to find alternate care. Sometimes the lapband is not for everyone(complications ect). Your insurance co. should beable to point you in the right direction for alternate care in terms of keeping your band, or removal.

you can also talk with your primary care MD. Maybe he./she can give you a referal for alternate bariactric services. As with any implant removal might be needed for your health.
