In today’s world, the web is most often our best, and sometimes only, resource to help us choose the best treatments and health care providers available. Throughout the last 11 years, our patients have traveled from all over the world, many of whom took the leap of faith in the Lap-Band and Dr. Kuri with very little understanding of what to expect.
Today, our patients no longer need to act on blind faith. This section is dedicated to providing you with more of an in-depth, first-hand look at the personal experiences of our patients. Within these videos they share what life’s like with the Lap-Band, why they chose to be banded, their experience of coming to Mexico for surgery with Dr. Kuri, and more.
