Are there any Dr's in ma that will do lap band surgery on someone with a BMI of 37 and no co-morbid condition? I know they had lowered the BMI but I think you still have to have a co morbid condition

I'm not sure if that is a surgeon's guidelines or health insurance companies guidelines. I would suggest you try calling a few programs.

I went through Tufts in Boston. Great program. Here is a link to their website.
