The Institute for Laparoscopic Surgery

mistyd01 · 06-26-2008, 03:54 PM

I haven't had the surgery yet but I'm in the begining stages of looking into it. I have 2 very active sons (7m and 2.5YO) and I'm worried that realistically, NWWLS in Everett is going to be just too far to drive for fills. I live in Bellevue. I found this place Weight Loss Surgery at the Institute for Laparoscopic Surgery but I don't know anyone who has used them. Can anyone offer any assistance or opinions? We don't have any family in the area or any childcare as I'm a stay at home mom so proximity is going to be a huge factor for me.

Ideas? Suggestions? Comments?

Thanks!
Misty

Hi Misty,

My Dr. is Dr. Srikanth and he is wonderful. He has an office in Federal Way but they just opened up one in Redmond I believe. That probably wouldn't be too far for you. He has a fantastic record for success (meaning the most amount of weight lost). I believe that Dr. Srikanth and Dr. Oh have the best record in the state. They are also the most strict. I went to alot of different free seminars before deciding which Dr. to use. I loved the fact that Dr. Srikanth used to be an organ transplant surgeon. He obviously knows his stuff. Anyways just an option for you. They are all wonderful at his office.
