Researching - from central MA

Hi everyone,

Just found this great site as I'm starting to look into the lap band process.

I live in central Massachusetts and will be going to a surgical information meeting at the Weight Center of the Univ of MA Medical Center later this week. I was just wondering if anyone out there had their banding done at UMass and what their experience has been.

Any information (good or bad) is welcome as I begin this journey.

Thanks!

    Hi there. Welcome to LapbandTalk!

    Have you checked out the Doctors & Hospitals subforum? There may be info on your program there. Also the Mass. state forum is a good place to ask.
