Has anyone been banded by a Dr. in the Conroe, The Woodlands, Bryan or College Station areas of Texas? I'll be self pay and would like any info you will share. I posted this in the Texas area also but had little response so I'm hoping the local area people will read and respond. Thanks!

I used Dr. Felts from LapBand solutions near the medical complex in houston. I was also a self pay. He is wonderful and so is the facility. Here is the web address for you. I highly recommend them to anyone. My friend went with me and when she was in having her surgery they found a cyst. They did not charge her for anything and refunded her money to her. Dr. Felts is amazing and very personable.

My friend used Dr. Spivak for gastric bypass, and if I hadn't found Dr. Kirshenbaum in Denver, I would have used him, too.

I was banded by Spiegel in Houston (I live in Conroe) I know just about everybody in my OBGYNs office in The Woodlands have been banded and they raved about Collier - I think he is in The Woodlands or Conroe.

Dr. Collier is really growing in popularity around here, but i went with dr. spivak in houston. i live just north of conroe, so it is a bit of a drive for me, but i just love the man...and his staff rocks too!! you could not go wrong with either of these doctors. ((spivak has been around the lapband community longer, and his self pay fee is down to 12k or so))
