Banded with Dr. K. in Los Angeles anyone?

I am in the "hoping to be banded" process with Dr. Khalili at Cedars Sinai. Has anyone here been banded by him? Provided surgery response time is good, (1-2 weeks). What was the timeline like according to his availablity? I guess I'm a little anxious to get this done, even though I am making sure I'm keeping my feet grounded. Also, just a little curious.
