Great Lakes Weight Loss

Great Lakes Weight Loss Center

Hello: Has anyone been to or have knowledge of the Great Lakes Weight Loss Center? I've found their website and contacted them.
It's located in Harper Professional Bldg. in Detroit & Rochester Hills Bldg in Rochester Hills, MI

They have quoted me a price extremely comparable to where I'm scheduled in October. They've said I could be scheduled within 2-3 wks from now.

Please let me know if you are able to provide any feedback.
I'll keep checking to see if I can find it here.

Thanks in advance, will post this in another forum as well.

Harper Hospital - Great Lakes Weight Loss

Hello!!
I'm still checking to see if anyone has been banded at Harper Hospital by Great Lakes Weight Loss team?

I've scheduled my band date of 10/7/08 and am so ready to get there to get it done.

I'm coming in from Chicago.

2 members of my support group were banded at Harper and they have not much good to say about it. They didn't like the follow up care. If you would like more info from them pm me and I'll give you their email address.

Re: Great Lakes Weight Loss

I was Banded in May and have not had any issues with them at all ;) Everything went pretty smooth.

Re: Great Lakes Weight Loss

Hello Casscitymom,
hoping you are doing well yourself these days.
I'm doing very well, everything went fine with Dr. Laker & his staff - he's so hands-on & very personable. He was able to really, really comfort my husband while I was in recovery and I needed that!

Since being home, I realize I need to take it slowly and not over do it.

Still trying to ponder whether or not I'll return there for my first f/u in six weeks, or just go to get a fill locally. I don't want to wait to long to make the decision, since airfares are rising all the time.

Take care and keep in touch!
