So many questions....

I have a few questions Im hoping someone can help me answer.

How frequent do the bands slip?

Im looking at having my surgery done with TLC Edge in Plano, TX....does anyone know anything about them?

Is there anywhere I can see detailed ratings of specific doctors?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can only address the "band slip" question and I believe it's about 3-5% of the time. I can tell you following the "rules" post op (ie don't eat solids before you're allowed, and once you're restricted, don't drink w/meals, chew well, etc etc) minimizes the chances of slippage and erosion.

You might try the "doctors and hospitals" forum with your other questions.
