video of proceedure

Thread Starter  

To some, a warning. This is an actual procedure video. I found it on the web here OBGYN.net Roberta's Gastric LAP-BAND^® Surgery For Weight Loss
It helped me understand the pre/post op and the surgery itself. Check it out if you can. Dont be fooled by the link name. This woman, Roberta, is a publisher of obgyn.net. You need real player {avail from site}. Also note the doctors are German, but they speak English and it was easy to understand.

Here's a link to a banding procedure done in Tampa, FL so it will be in English. The surgeon's also took questions during the procedure so it is quite informative.

There are several videos of the procedure on YouTube. Lots of people post video blogs there. The information has been good. Learned lots there about what to do AND what NOT to do.

There are plenty of videos out there. Its kinda cool to see how different doctors do the same procedure in different ways. I think this particular one has more of a first person view to it all. This woman is a reporter and tells the whole pre/post op (2 and a half years) story through her own eyes. I hope to do as good as she has! The Tampa video is very good as well! (Are all the docs doing this European?!! LOL)
