I wasn't banded at this location, but I would suggest you read the sticky of surgery day stories, if you haven't already. There are so many similarities that happen regardless of where you are banded that you should get a good idea of what will happen.

I was banded there on Dec. 31 08! I loved it...very private and the staff are exteremly informative and outgoing.

I arrived about an hour early and filled out the necessary paperwork and then they took me back to change into socks and a gown. They even let my husband come back with me which really put me at ease!!! They inserted my IV and the anestesiolgist(SP) paid me a little visit, the next thing I know about an hour in a half had past and I was waking up...I drank some Water, coughed a little and walked around a bit. Dr B. (who was fabulous) paid me a visit and then I was on my way home!

i had a good experience there.

i was banded an hr before my husband; our surgeon had us hooked up on iv right next to each other, and it was very private - more so than other surgeries i've had in a hospital.

my dr is no longer affiliated, however i had no issues with SCOR.

I too was banded there on Dec. 31. Everything went very well. Everyone was super nice. I have never been in the hospital (except for labor), and this experience felt more like a quick doctors visit for me than a hospital stay.

I'm just curious if there are any support groups in the area? I've heard there are, but I'm not sure where to look.

The True Results support group meets monthly at the surgery center on the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 6:30 pm. It's open to people who got banded by other surgeons, as well.
