I'm researching any information I can possibly get in reference to getting banded and just want to know if anyone in my area has had the surgery, what Dr. did they use and how it went.

Thanks!

I am going to go to Dr Rehnke. so is my friend. Wanting to have the LapBand,,I have met him and his staff in person, gone through a seminar and orientation with him... He even had us follow him after the orientation to the office and then our hotel so we wouldnt be lost, and then had to go back to the Hospital to do 2 more surgeries...

He is in the St Petersburg area, you can go to obesitynomorefl and check things out there. Just add the WWW. and the .Com to that. It is the Palms of Pasadena Hospital website, they have a special are in the Hospital for bariatrics.

There is also a message board there too...
