Is anyone from Asheville??

I was just wondering if there's anyone here from my beautiful city, Asheville? My lap band surgery is scheduled for May 1st with Dr. Soosaar and I'd love to hear from any of his other patients? Heck, I'd love to hear from anyone who's had lap band. Advise. Comments. Do's and Don't's. Anything. I'm just a little scared!! Thanks a million, Vicki

Vicki, I am from Asheville as well! But that is about all I can say.........I had RNY in Hickory. I just wanted to say good luck. I hear Dr. Soosaar has a great reputation. Nancy

Thank you, Nancy, for your well wishes. They mean a lot to me. Wishing you continued success! Vicki

Hi Vicki! I too am from Asheville and like Nancy, I had RNY surgery in Hickory with Dr. Cox. Don't know much about Dr. Soosaar either. Good luck with your upcoming procedure and let me know if I can help in any way! Tiffany

I'm close to Asheville, but had RNY surgery in Florida in 2002. Just wanted to wish you the best with your surgery. - Marcy

Thanks Marcy, that means a lot. I appreciated your response and wishes for my surgery. I'm getting a little anxious!! Vicki

Hi Tiffany, Thank you for your response and good wishes...this site is so wonderful. And thank you for your offer of future help...I just may be calling on you! Vicki
