Hi just wondering if any one out their has gotten or is thinkgin of getting banded at Georgetown KY?

I have been to my first all day apt. But was going in as a self pay then realized my husbands inc covers it, if you qualify. I am waiting on them to respond if I am approved or not.

I know they have their own band web site which is nice, but I do enjoy getting on this one as well and have come to realize that getting banded seams more popular then getting a boob job.
LOL which may need to come after weight loss:)

Hi I Got Banded In Georgetown And It Went Great So My Husband Had It Done Last Month I Had It Done Nov-07 And Have Lost 32 Lbs

Hi Lois5 - that is great on you loss. By chance are you on the Georgetown Bandsters web site? if so what is you user name? I have found it to be very helpful with lots of questions and answers.
So you had no problems with the surgery?

Thanks Gina

I was banded 2/6/08 by Dr. Oldham and to date have lost 22 lbs since surgery, 30.5 since the pre-surgery diet in January. I am very satisfied with office. I actually thanked them for making it so easy. They took care of all the appointments and approvals.

I attended the seminar in Somerset on May 2nd. I have submitted my paperwork with Georgetown and hope to get accepted there soon. Would love to stay in touch with people currently going to Georgetown, going through this process and those who have walked it before. Good luck to everyone. hope to hear from some of you.

Hi,

My name is Patty and I had the Lap Band surgery 1 month ago at Georgetown.
The staff is wonderful. They explain everything several times there are some classes you have to take there at their facility. Very thorough. I I had a great experience. I am down 22 pounds in 5 weeks. Feeling Great. I would do it again in a second and I would do it there. My doctor was Weiss. There are two doctors there and they work together on the operations. One take on the first roll and the other backs him up. Again I can't stress enough how thorough they are. Several of the nurses have had one or the other of the surgeries and tell you exactly what to expect. So far they have been right on.
