Hi Dr. Geller, I haven't met you yet. I was thinking of having the surgery and I was assigned to you at first for the Lap Band but medicare doesn't cover that one yet, so I was assigned to Dr. Shina. But after looking at the risks for death, I've already put my family through so much through 4 back surgeries, I just couldn't think of putting them through that risk. But the lap band isn't as risky I don't think, so if medicare ever approves it I might be in to meet you. I'm still considering whether to go to the meetings and learn more about the proceedures and meet some in the support groups. I'm just not sure yet. Hope to meet you anyway someday. Lydia Butts
