Question:
Anyone have Adjustable Lap Band done in Indiana?

Who was your surgeon? What was the cost? How much weight have you lost? Are you happy you had it done instead of RNY?    — Karen W. (posted on April 17, 2002)

I don't know if there are any doctors in Indiana, but you could check on www.thebandsters.com and click on doctors. I know there are a few doctors in Chicago and others scattered throughout the Midwest. Good luck to you!

I don't know about doctors in Indiana as I live in Colorado. I had the surgery three weeks ago and have already lost 23lbs. I spent one night in the hospital and had very little discomfort. I was back to normal in 10 days.

I am from Ohio and had surgery 3 weeks ago with Dr. Ponce in Dalton Ga. Spent several hundred hours researching the band and surgeons and chose him even though he was out of my network. Dr. Needleman at OSU also does band surgeries, have not heard much about Indiana surgeons though. Good luck ....

Hi I also live in Indiana and I am having the lap band surgery in a few months. I am seeing a surgeon in Louisville Ky. His name is Dr. Allen and his partners are the only Drs. in this area that currently do the lap surgery. If you have any questions e-mail me at. [email protected] good luck Janis
