Maybe name the docs at the obesitygoodbye clinic...that might help us get you some responses. Most folks post their doc's name and the website may not be jogging memories? good luck!

I used them with very good results. I can't speak for everyone, but I'd use them again. I've heard rumors online of a couple of people not happy with them, but I can't verify their validity. I can only speak of my own experience. I haven't had a single serious complication, I've lost 72# from my highest weight ever, and 60# from surgery day 7 months ago. The surgical facility was very nice, the dr's office is old but clean, the hotel was very nice, the staff was very caring, my surgery was a complete success, I was given the box and serial numbers for my band, and lastly the price was right. It's been 7 mo.s, and they called me at home last week to check up on my progress and make sure I was still doing alright. There are good and bad things out here about lots of the doctors, research well, and make your own decision based on what you feel most comfortable with. You can search messages left by me here to read more indepth about my experiences there, I've written pretty detailed posts about it in some places. Good Luck to you!

I used them, personally I think they are the best. But thats because they are my doctors :) The facility is headed my Dr verboonen and Dr Ponce de leon. Both are great doctors and are good at what they do.

But as others might point out, Dr verboonen has been involved with insurance fraud and he has done his time for it.

But if you are looking for a doctor that is good at what he does, just look at me, I am a perfect example of his work.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
