Topic: RE: Anyone from Denver/Aurora getting ready 4 Surgery
I am in the north area though not as far north as you. I had lap band with Dr. Snyder in June. I live near 104th and Tower (near DIA). How can I help you??
Topic: RE: Dr Michael Johnell patients??
Hi.
I'm checking out this site for the first time. I see where you posted on 8/24 that you were scheduled for surgery on 9/11 with Dr. Johnell. I am scheduled for surgery 10/2. I'm wondering how things went with you. If you had to travel, you might not be home yet.
I live in Cortez, which is 9 hours from Greeley. I have family in Thornton where I will be staying. I'm eager to get past the surgery and get on to the rest of my life. I still need to lose 6 more lbs before my surgery date. Did you lose the weight you were supposed to?
I have about 90 lbs to lose. I would be happy with 75.
I'm older than most of his patients (58) and I hope it won't slow down my progress. My insurance is only paying a part of the costs, so I have had to scrape up a LOT of money. I think I have it all gathered up, now. I will have to repay most of it, but I'd rather do that while I am losing the weight than to postpone the surgery till I have all the money collected & saved up front.
I am kind of dreading the trips up to Greeley for the adjustments during the winter months, but maybe I won't have to have as many adjustments as I fear.
How was your experience at the hospital? Was there a reason you chose the Lap band instead of the Realize band? I initially picked the Realize band, but it isn't too late to change my mind, if I need to. I really conflicted about which one to select.
Do you have diabetes? That is the main reason I started all this. I have had Diabetes II for 10 years and I am so ready to be done with that. Hopefully this surgery will lead to an improvement with my quality of life and a longer life expectancy.
Please let me know how your experience went. I leave to the Greeley area on 9/26. Have lots and lots to do before that - including losing those 6 pounds.

I am set for surgery on Monday and scared as hell. It is just the unknown. I am getting GPS.
Anyone in the North Denver area I can talk to?

Hey Nicole!
You should feel completely confident that Dr. Snyder is your surgeon. I just had lapband surgery done by him on Sept 4... I live in the Springs, but the 1 hour drive to Denver is totally worth it! The entire office staff/nurses are so supportive and they really do care! Good luck with your surgery! :)

I attend the support group in Northglenn the first Tues. of the month. It's both bypass and lap band folks there. I see you are in Aurora so that may not be real close.

Topic: RE: Dr Scott Fischer
Dr Fisher did my LapBand surgery a year ago today. I absolutely love him. I was also told by my pcp that Dr Fisher is the best in the area. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
