Hi, Most clinics are 16,000$ but CIBO is 18,000$ due to their support afterwards... HTH Jules

Hello, I've recently been looking into to the lap-band surgery... There seems to be a few surgeons that are close to me.. Out in Ottawa... I will be contacting them but I am also looking for different opinions... I was wondering who your surgeon was, why you chose him or her and what the price of the surgery was? Thanks again for all the info! I can't wait to get this procedure done! Julie

Hello, I have a question! I was wondering if you could get pregnant with the lapband? I have not been banded yet but would like to get in done this year... However I would like more children if the future... I have read that you can get pregnant with the band but was wondering if anybody has hands on experience with it. Thanks you, Juls

Thank you everyone who answered! None of my surgeries had to do with the digestive sytem they were galbladder(Spelling?) and ovaries (3 surgeries) and tumor from breast! My body seems to like growth it might be all the extra cushioning LOL!!! So hopefully it will all work out! Thanks again!

Hi, Everyone! I have been doing allot of research in regard to getting the lap and surgery or not! I have decided that this is the way to go for me! But I was wondering if anybody has had it done that had previous surgeries before? See I have had 5 surgeries and was wondering if the lap band surgery would still be a possibility! Any stories or insight would be greatly appreciated! :confused: Thanks Juls

Hey, Everyone thanks for the replies! I've also has my goulbladder removed and the some... I've had a 4 surgeries in that area. But nothing done on the stomach iself...So I'm hoping to be able to still do this even if I have to get it done in the hospital... Well thank you again for you replies! Julie

Hi, I am new here and have been reseaching and reading and thinking long and hard about having the lapband surgery... I have come to the conclusion that this is what I want to do! But I have a question has anybody ever been turned down? I mean not due to motivation but I have had previous stomach surgerries in the past and was wondering if the lapband is still an option even though I have scar tisssue? Thank you, Julie
