All the waiting was the hardest part for me. It felt like forever.

Re: Waiting for a date..

I had my surgery at Mercy, and I tell you, you will be sorry later. The aftercare and follow-up is horrible. You will find that you are just a number, and if you are a public aid patient, you will only get appointments once a month. They do fills in small increments instead of how restricted you are because they only get paid for one visit a month through public aid. I would go to the University, because once you have your surgery somewhere, other surgeons will not take you on as a patient because they consider it a liability. They don't want to take on someone else's surgery patient and rightfully so. Mercy has been the worst experience in the Chicagoland area that I have heard of. Some won't speak of it because of fear that the clinic will drop them.

Good luck and prayers.

i just had the surgery 11-6-09 and it was not that bad , i just did not like when i went for a x ray the person who took me was very rude he just pushed me down there didn't say a word , he didn't say someone will be with you in a minute. It took him darn near a hour to come back and get me. Every one else was OK . I didnt expect more from Chicago hospitals they are over crowed , and i barely never had good service from most of the hospitals because of it being overcrowded when i lived there. But they call you at LAP-BAND® and if you have a problem you can go see them. the appointments are once a month but you can go see them if you have a problems anytime they stress that a hundred times. THEY WERE EXTREMELY NICE TO ME TOO
