Guest guest Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I'm hoping to see Dr. A by the end of April for LapBand. Lots of questions and would love to talk to someone locally who has already had the procedure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 I am from just West of Portland, OR. I had the surgery Nov 9, 2007. It was a good decision for me. I have struggled alot with losing weight. Now I am doing it slow and steady with the help of the band. Feel free to ask questions...everyone here will answer them for you. Just reading through past postings is also helpful! > > I'm hoping to see Dr. A by the end of April for LapBand.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 , is there anything you would do differently? I am concerned about the ongoing costs (airfare mostly) for fills. How many fills have you had to have since your were banded? Did you go back to Dr. A or have them done locally? I've got to pay for the full surgery out of pocket so I am interested in my long range budget. Debi > > > > I'm hoping to see Dr. A by the end of April for LapBand.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 HI,I live in Eugene OR. There is a nurse practitioner in Portland named Fitzpatrick. She does an excellent fill just by feel. Don't fall for the crap about needing a doctor for the fills. It's a quick poke in the gut hurts very little she puts the saline in and your done takes less then 15 minutes. The cost is $150. She is very nice and very easy to deal with. Her number is 503-235-6589. You don't need all the fancy equipment just her talented hands. Good luck!jeridebil7777 <debil7777@...> wrote: , is there anything you would do differently? I am concerned about the ongoing costs (airfare mostly) for fills.
