Hi Laurie, I have also heard that they are a center of excellence. I haven't seen their facility listed as a center yet. Congratulations on getting started on your weight loss journey. Let us know how you are doing. Mona

Topic: Center of Excellency in Omaha?????
At the GI meeting last week someone said that Omaha Creighton had become a Center of Excellency and I was wondering if anyone else knew if it was for sure.
I saw my GP today and with the exception of a couple of tests he wants to do he has given the go ahead for me to have Lap Band surgery! YAHHHHOOOOOO! Soooooooo now we begin. I don't think I will have a bit of a problem with him verifying that I have done medical supervised diets and such. He told me to pick the doctor and that he would call and make arrangements for me to see him/her. Soooooo now to the research of doctors.
Would LOVE some imput from all to the doctors in Omaha who can do surgery at Creighton IF it has been added to the Center of Excellency for medicaid/medicare.
thanks!
Laurie

Does anyone know if any local surgeons participate in the Lap Band Financing program?

Hi Linda, it will get better. It sometimes takes a couple of fills before you feel good restriction and get your appetite shut down. Make sure you are making healthy food choices with protein, fruits, veggies and fiber. Good luck. Mona
