I had my lap band surgery done in late March of 2009 by Dr Jahnavi Srinivasan. I did this through Emory Bariatric center and the surgery was done at Emory Midtown (formerly Crawford Long) Hospital. I had a complication and had to have a port revision in early May (my port flipped due to awful nausea after the first surgery), but since then I've had 2 fills and am doing very well. Dr Srinivasan is great, very charming and warm, and extremely knowledgeable. Her bedside manner is the best I've ever dealt with. While she is from India, I think she's spent her whole life her in the US and she has a very American accent, so there are no communication issues. She will spend whatever time is neccesary to help you.

I highly recommend her.

Thank you for posting about Dr. Srinivasan. I have just finished all the required testing and nutrition class and hope to hear a date next week. Can you tell me how you are doing now? And how many fills you've had? What is the cost of each fill? I have so many questions and I am thrilled to hear of someone that has used this doctor. Thank you for all the info you can give me.
