HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE FROM YOUR FIRST VISIT TO THE DOC. AND TILL U HAVE YOUR SURGERY. IM PAYING CASH BECAUSE MY INS WONT PAY FOR IT. I HAVE BEEN TO 2 MEETING ON THE LAP BAND . I CANT WAIT TO GET STARTED.
Different doctors go at different rates. Mine took almost a year but I was scheduled to get my surgery date the day Katrina hit so it really took awhile after that to find my doctor who was in New Orleans and get it scheduled.
