Just Banded in Gainesville, FL

Hi, I was just banded in Gainesville, FL by Dr. Hipp. My surgery was done on Feb. 5th, so I am just two weeks post-op. Thank you everyone who has posted on this site, as I used it as a reference for knowing what to expect from the surgery.

Congratulations on your recent surgery and welcome to the boards. Unfortunately I didn't find this site until after my surgery but it sure has come in handy since then. Good luck on your journey.

Hi there and welcome to LBT! I am a fellow Floridian from Jacksonville.

We look forward to getting to know you!

Hi Gainesvillegirl! I too am a Gainesville girl! My surgeon was Dr. Sarrantos. I had my surgery in October 2007. PM me if you want to chat! :crying: Good luck to you!

Hi Gainesvillegirl. I've lived in G'ville for 30 years. My surgery was done in February at UF by Dr Ben-David.

How are you feeling?
