He is probably the best doctor I have ever had. His team is fantastic. When I went to the seminar and heard them speak, I was convinced that day that I was going to have the Lap Band. They have been wonderful and I lost 90 pounds today! They have been there for me since I filled out the paper work saying I was interested. I am frequently e-mailed by half of his team.

If you just google lap band ucsd its the first link.

I am having my consult w/them next Wednesday - I am so excited!!! Do you happen to know the time from consult to surgery? I am self pay.

Congrats!!!

SD Mom,

I had my initial consult last week, and they called to schedule my surgery for the end of November. Good luck! And be prepared to be there about 4 hours, at least that was how long it was for me and I have no major medical issues except for being obese. Everyone was so nice!

How exciting for you!!!!!!! I am ready for the long visit. Are you self pay? When do you start your fast? I have so many questions and can't wait for my appt next week.

I'm sorry I can't be helpful. I got my surgery for free through a teen study. All I know is ALWAYS plan to be in the waiting room for no less than 45 minutes when you go for appointments.

Hi Hollie,

I just saw you in Dr. Horgan's office on Oct 7th, WOW you look awesome, I recognized your picture.

Everytime I've gone for any appointment, the most I've had to wait is 10 min. I guess I've been lucky so far.

Anyways, I began this entire process on july 7, obtaining my referral to Dr. Horgan from my primary. but had to wait until 08-27 to actually see Dr. Horgan after that my approval from the insurance company took 10 days, and would already have had my surgery, if my employer would had let me take the time off, but due to my employer I had to wait extra time.

At this moment my surgery will be on 10/29, and I am starting my pre-op diet on 10/15. very excited.

anyways, Dr. Horgan and his team have been nothing else but a joy and awesome support team.
