i am looking for a doctor in the dfw area that does lapband. I am doing my research now, and am hoping to find a great doctor. If you have any suggestions, please reply. Have a great evening everyone!

I used Dr Benavidas in Richardson. He was wonderful and knowledgeable. I was banded on 7-10 and have so far had no problems and 22 lbs lost so far since i started the process. I ended up choosing him after several people I knew recommended him. I'm really glad I did. I contribute my quick recovery in part to him being a great surgeon with lots of experience. Good luck on your journey!

My surgeon was Dr. Victor Gonzalez in Dallas. I loved him. Very sweet man and answered all my questions to my satisfaction. The office staff and nurses are also a very nice group of people.

I went through TLCEdge and he is the surgeon they scheduled me with. They work with many great surgeons in the DFW area.

Best wishes on your journey,

Stephanie

I used Dr. Richard Benavides, my surgury was 8/11/08 and I have had no problems. Staff is friendly and helpful and very nice. There is also a great support group that meets once a month. You can check him and the other doctors that he works with out at lapbandsolutions.com. They have an advertisement on this page that I have seen flashing at the top.

My surgeon was Dr. Wade Barker in Dallas. He was the second Dr. I saw before I decided to go with him. He does more bypasses than lap bands but I think he did a great job for me. I had very little post op pain. Good luck in your search. Make sure you find someone you are comfortable with.
