I was banded on Oct 23, 2009 by Dr. Reich. Let me say he's an awesome surgeon and everyone at his office is so carring. I would also recommend going to the support groups once a month. You can go before your surgery. They are also at SOCH the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 7pm. We are next to the cage in the cafeteria (door next to the cage).

I have successfully lost 41lbs since surgery. And they are also very good with the fills too. If you have any questions at all. Please feel free to add me as a friend.

I would definately recommend Dr. Reich's office to everyone. He has changed my life.

Hi, I have my first appt with Dr Reich's office on Monday. I'm concerned if I'm even going to qualify due to my 2008 & 2009 weights being just under a 35 BMI. MY current weight is over a 35 and I have diabetes (not insulin dependent), high triglicerides & hypothyroidism.

Can you tell me about his staff and he does the pre & post op diet, also how soon do you get fills after surgery?

I've also read a lot about bandsters not being able to swallow pills anymore. Does Dr Reich say no to this as well?

Thanks so much!

I was banbded by Dr. Johnathan Reich on 1-21-2011. I have lost 42lbs so far. I have had 2 fills both done by Dr. Reich. I absolutely love him and his entire office staff. Very easy to get an appointment.

Three ladies in my workplace, including me, all banded by Dr, Reich. Great surgeon and the staff is the best. Very serious about ensuring good outcomes. Week and a half post-op now and down 10 lbs.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
