What doctor are you using in Monroe? Thanks.

Hopefully, Dr. Sartor. You?

I am actually going through a surgeon in Dallas-Dr.Cribbins. He comes highly recommended and then all my aftercare will be through the Family Clinic in Calhoun with Rita Zuber.

Is this Walter or Frank Sartor? Must you have a referral to see him? I am desperate for lap band. I can't get enough to eat and I am sick of it.

My surgeon was Dr. Cribbins in Dallas, TX. I responded to your pm with extra info. Let me know if you need anything else.

I was scheduled with Walter Sartor on 3/11 but had to have a cardiac clearance. I don't have a new date as yet. I know a couple of ladies who have used him with much happiness! You do not need to have a referral to get an appt with him.

Thanks so much for the info! I am so glad I don't have to have a referral. I don't weigh nearly as much as I used to thanks to diabetes...but I can't control my quantity intake. I think I'll try to make an appointment with him after Easter. Do you know if they are a BlueCross/BlueShield provider? Also, did you insurance help out any?

I had surgery March 3 with Dr Sartor in West Monroe and would recommend him to anyone. I am now on my 3rd fill (received it yesterday) and I wondering if it is a little tight. Liquids are hard to get down

paylady · 04-27-2008, 02:33 PM

How soon after your 3/3 surgery did you get your 1st fill? Are you able to keep down liquids now, after your 3rd fill or did you have to be un-filled some? I am scheduled with Dr. Sartor the first week of May.

Thanks for the response. Hope you get adjusted better to get those liquids and needed food down. I did see the doctor and am waiting on insurance approval. Hope to have surgery late May, early June!

Paylady, please keep us informed on your progress. I hope to have the surgery with Dr. Sartor in late May, early June and can't wait! I live in Bastrop.
