Is anyone familiar with any of the bariatric surgeons in Columbia, SC? I had started the process in Atlanta, but will be moving back to my home area in a couple of weeks and will have to find a new surgeon. Thinking about Dr. Tribble, mainly because his brother was my mother's heart surgeon and he was AWESOME. Silly, huh? :guess

***bumping to the top***

What hospital is he/she associated with. I had my lap band done by Dr. Strickland in Lexington Hospital, but I know of someone that had theirs done by the doctors at Baptist.

Hi Sitarra! He is at Baptist. Do you know what kind of experience your friend had there? I would consider Lexington, but we are going to be living in Sumter and the drive would be a bit much for the appointments I think. Any help/insight you can give will be greatly appreciated.
