i AM LOOKING FOR A SURGEON FOR LAP BAND SURGERY IN de OR md. i LIVE IN eLKTON WHICH IS RIGHT OUTSIDE OF BALTIMORE AND OUTISDE OF WILMINGTON. HELP PLEASE...I AM DYING TO GET THE SURGERY : ' (

I think that Delmarva Bariatric Center in Salisbury MD is doing lap band now as well as RNY. Best wishes on you journey. Hugs, Mo

my surgeon does lapband and so does the rest of her group as well....I am having the RNY but was going to her for lap band originally.....Her name is Ann Lidor and she is at John's Hopkins Bay View Medical Center.......if you want the number email me and I will be glad to give it to you good luck Lisa

That would be awesome. Does she have a web site? Also what is typical timeframe for getting the surgery once you have an initial consult.. am I looking at months or what?

she is booking for april right now but am sure that it is booking fast but sometimes she has quick openings as far as the surgery the Dr. visit well there really isnt much of a wait......but like all the others that gave you advice I think any of the docs would be good just have to research.....the website for them is smallscar.com it is for Dr. Schwitzer but you can get the info and it can be for any of them Good luck you need anything else just let me know Lisa

Dr. Christina Li at Sinai in Baltimore does lap band.

All hospitals in MD have Doctors that do lasp band. Search on their web sites. We will all tell you that our Doc are the best, if we did not feel that way we would be looking for a new Dr. I will be using Dr Singh at St Agnes. Some Doctors can get you into their office pretty fast and some have a 5-6 month waiting time from the time you call for the appt to the time of the consultation. Good Luck Barbara

Although I had the RNY two years ago, my surgeon, Dr. Kuldeep Singh, also performs lap band procedures. Like others, I agree my surgeon is the best. But I also want to point out that Dr. Singh was also featured in Baltimore Magazine several months ago as one of the top docs in the bariatric field. His staff is wonderfully supportive before and long after the surgery, and you can't go wrong with St. Agnes as a surgical facility. Good luck to you ! Joann

I am almost 3 months out from my surgery that I had done by Dr.Bovard and Dr. Sofronski at Delmarva Bariatric in Salisbury. They are wonderful and so is their staff. Most of their staff are bariatric patients also. You would have to come down here for your follow ups after surgery because they do have a "requirement" for follow up. They don't just do the surgery and set you out on your own.
