HI. I am currently working with insurance to get lap band revision surgery approved with Dr. Turnquest. I also had a great feeling about him when we visited. Did you know he was voted one of the "super doctors" in Texas by Texas Monthly magazine? He was voted on by his peers. He also had 2 awards in his office from a hospital where he was voted favorite Doctor by the staff. Having worked in a hospital with doctors... this is a huge honor and says alot about his character. As far as his experience with Laps, his nurse tells me he has done about 80. This is not a huge amount, but in the texas monthly magazine it said he had no complaints against him with the medical board. good luck. hope this helps! Bullit
