Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Couldn’t Be Happier!!
I had been overweight/obese my entire life. In 2007, I had LapBand surgery at 282 pounds. I lost about 110 pounds and was doing well until I got a stomach flu. It’s impossible to vomit “correctly” with the LapBand and the bottom part of my stomach migrated into the top portion. Even with several attempts to correct it, it was never the same. I had major complications and gained all of the weight back plus more. My highest weight was 314 pounds. I opted to have band removal and DS surgery in March 2017. Its a little over 2 yrs later, and I weigh 144 pounds!!! And the Dr estimates I have about 15-20 pounds of extra skin on my body. My bloodwork is perfect. The only not-so-great side effect— horrible smelling gas and stool. But it’s a small price to pay for the amazing success I’ve had! I would do it again in a heartbeat. I saw Dr Dennis Smith in Celebration, Fl (formally Marietta, GA). He is so amazingly smart and has a wonderful bedside manor. He even spent time with my parents after the surgery and explained the procedure and what to expect during my recovery.
