City: On a small hobby farm State: Southern Indiana | Watched my Emmi Doc sent.
I was sent a information video called a Emmi it was fabulous. It really clarified many questions I had and felt a little unsure to ask. I have my first date with the surgeon on Jan 11 and found out through email I apparently have Dr. Schuster of St. Mary's Hospital in Louisville Ky. I met him during the seminar he is wonderful and will be easy to work with I am sure. I am so excited I hope they will be able to do my surgery in Jan.. so I can get my routine down and well on my way to a healthier slimmer me before spring. :clap2::clap2::clap2:

I would think anyone who was thinking of undergoing this sort of thing would read/watch any information sent to them especially if sent from their doctor. I found the Emmi very informative, I am very glad it was sent to me and I was allowed to share it with a few of my friends and my brother who are also thinking of doing the surgery.

I am interested in your experience at St. Mary's and Dr. Schuster himself.....again, good luck and be happy

Hello Donna,
I am from Southern Indiana near the Seymour area. An Emmi is a program sent to you by the surgeon that walks you through the entire process via computer. It is really neat you can go on line and watch something similar here

My doc used the My Emmi program, too, and it was awesome. IMO, it should be required for ALL patients to watch/participate in prior to banding. SO informative, and I love the fact that I could pause during the presentation and type in a question that was submitted to my doc so I didn't have to try to remember all my questions. When I went for my consult, he had the printout of all my questions, and went right down the list and answered every one, no matter how simple or silly the question might have seemed.

You are making a great choice. Dr McEwen and his staff really like to help you use your tools to be successful. LAP-BANDŽ Surgery in Indiana - Bariatric Surgery - Morbid Obesity Surgery - Keith McEwen M.D. or Indiana Obesity Center - LAP-BANDŽ System Surgery is a good way to learn more. I paid for my surgery and it was the best choice and best thing I ever have DONE FOR MYSELF!
Best Wishes!
