Hi-

I'm scheduled for Surgery on March 26. This week I get my pre-op and meet with the nutritionist. I would love to talk to someone from this area.

Hi Quincy girl, I have been going to Dr Hammers support groups even though I will be having my surgery in Peoria. Dr. Hammer is a wonderful Doctor and I would trust him with any surgery I had. He has pretty much done any surgery I had to have but I can't go to him because of my Insurance. I think the Doctors in Peoria are good also. At least I hope so. Well good luck to you.

I had my band done oct. 2007 by dr. hammer. Couldn't be more thrilled with him or the whole process. Down 70 so far and feeling great. Would love to talk to anyone in the Springfield area, or who used dr. hammer.:cursing:

Hey I am from Springfield and had my band on June 18, 2008. Went to Dr. in Peoria for Insurance reasons and have lost 19 lbs so far. Hey KZibutis. Are you related to Nancy. I took her old job at Illinois Bell. You have to be related some how with that name. Write me back and let me know.

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I am looking for people in my area.

I live in Quincy and I am seeing Dr. Sidney Rohrscheib in Clinton. I did my psych eval yesterday and we are now waiting to see what all my insurance needs for my predetermination.

Hi Tracy,

sorry it took a while to respond. I hadn't been on in a while and had trouble logging in. I am 2 1/2 year out and loving every minute of it. My cousin just had Dr R. do her surgery on 2/13 and she is also doing great. Feel free to email me privately at tlbranham@sbcglobal.net. I had great success and am loving my new looks and attitude toward life.

Thanks for your reply. I cant wait to get a surgery date. The clinic will be submitting all my info in about a week. They have to get all my info together first. I am so ready for this!
