OBGYN.net Broadcasting presents Part I of a series of presentations on Weight Loss Surgery. This project is unique in that we follow the patient from pre-op to one year post-op. The patient is Roberta Speyer, Publisher of OBGYN.net. Funding for this project was provided by InnerDyne® Inc., BioEnterics Corp., and Richard Wolf Instruments. In Part I we hear how being overweight has affected Roberta's life and led her to make the decision to have surgery. With Roberta is Marshall Smith MD, MediSpecialty.com Publisher.
At this time, three years post-op, Roberta is satisfied with the outcome of her surgery and hopes you have found her story helpful in your search for answers. Please direct any questions about LAP BAND surgery to your personal physician, or email the product makers directly at: http://www.inamed.com/contact/bio_patient.cgi. Due to time restraints Roberta Speyer and the OBGYN.net team cannot respond to personal emails. See Professor Rudolf Weiner's website about Weight Loss Surgery to see if this option is right for you.
