Hello Everyone, I am new here and I have decided to have lap band surgery. Has anyone been seen by Dr. Bovard or at bovard bariatric center? I have my first appointment on Tuesday and I am planning on doing there fast track program since I am self pay any informations would be great.

I'm pre-op with Dr. Bovard. Scheduled for surgery this month with BCBS picking up the tab. I really like him, you'd be hard pressed to find any surgeon who's more devoted to detailed individualized care. If you really want to learn how his patients feel about him, I'd recommend going to one of his patient support groups.

Here are a couple of threads I found with discussion on him:
