Hi..my name is Tracey and I am trying to get the Lap band. I am waiting on one more thing to get insurance approval and I hope it is approved quickly. I am so excited about this life changing event. I know I can do this and this is something I really want. I hope to make some new friends and I am always looking for advice and learning from other's experiences. Look forward to meeting everyone:clap2:

My doctor is David Elliott. He is with the Richmond Surgical Group. I will be banded at Henrico Doctor's Parham Campus. I can't wait. I am counting down the days until all my appts on 11/5!

Hi there!

Dr. Terracina did my surgery last December. He and the staff were wonderful! You are in good hands!

I'm a tranplanted Virginian--originally from up north. I've been in the area since 2001.

I hope all goes well for you!

thanks so much. I'm watching my emmi video.

I'm from the Richmond area and scheduled for banding Jan. 21 at St. Mary's. This website has been a wonderful resource for me - lots of information and things to think about.

Welcome!

Dr. T did my surgery almost 3 years ago, great doctor and staff, good luck with the insurance approval...they also accept cash...

I graduated from York High School, and so did both of my grown sons, so that should tell you it was a long time ago.

Welcome to LBT and let us know when you get the news.

I am going to be seeing Dr Terracina in Newport News. They are submitting my case to my insurance today so I am keeping my fingers crossed and hoping for the best. I hope that I hear something back soon.

Hey Tracey, how are you doing, I am going too Newport News also, I go for my psy eval on wed, I guess I'll see what happens after that. Let be know how things have turned out for you
