Sand Pirate Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Hi to the dynamic duo :-h Well, I did it, I scheduled myself for February 9th 2007. I have a done a lot of research on the Lab-Band surgery and I hope my decision on having the surgery is one of the better decisions I have made. Foremost, the surgeon had to be the best and the surgery center had to be the cleanest and well equipped. The people supporting the surgeon had to be the most caring and knowledgeable. If the rest of the staff is as caring ,friendly and knowledgeable as Lori and Carolyn are then I know I made the right decision. I haven't spoken with anyone else yet but I guess that will come in time the closer it gets to Feb. 9th. I also want to thank the nice people on this forum because without your great comments that I have read for hours on end I couldn't have made my decision with the confidence I have. =D> Thank you, your friend in Florida.

Sand Pirate I agree, they've both been really helpful and answered all my questions. I'm also having my surgery on 2/9, as is AussieinOregon. Nice to meet you!

If you gals are coming in on the 8th then maybe we should meet that evening in the hotel to exchange how we feel and what we know prior to surgery. It would also be good to have some recognizable faces in the hospital! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steph Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I've never had the pleasure of meeting Lori. But to reply to your original statement--everyone there IS just as helpful, and compassionate as Carolyn and Lori. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Pirate Posted December 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 That sounds Great We need to find all the people for February 9th and get together on the 8th at the Hotel.
