Well finally got some action

 Hi everyone , I have been here before just wanting info and also I just sort of hang around and read some of the topics.
But my news is I have an appointment with Dr. Scott at Depaul and was wondering what to expect has anyone had any expericence with him. I am hoping to have a band put in.   My appointment is Feb. 16, 2009 .   Also I live in Central Illinois about 40 to 50 minutes from Clark Bridge and was wondering if any support groups  around.   I have been working on this long time and will be so happy to get underway. also nervous and scared of life style change  but it all has to be worth it.  Well Glad to be back with something to report .

Did you say at DePaul...the reason I asked is I am an undergrad here at DePaul and I didn't know we had a medical division??

Just wondering

Yes I said Depaul , in Bridgeton,  Mo.    They have a baratric unit there with Dr. Del a torres and Dr, Scott.   

Carolyn,
