Hi Falgune, Thank you for your information and effort to find a lawyer, hope we will get some good news soon!

Hi! I heard about this law firm and I tried to contact them appr. 3 months ago, they never write me back! I think, it would be better if we could find our own lawyer here in Toronto.

Thank you so much! My band is infected since this year mid January, but couldn't get any care because of covid19! Finally, I will have my surgery and will be covered by Ohip! Also thank you to look into the lawsuit and please inform me about the lawyer's respond! Good luck with everything!

Hi everyone! I will have my band removed in Women's College Hospital in Toronto on June 25th. We should really work harder on trying to file a lawsuit against the clinic and/or the slimband company!

I have no idea! I had/have problems with my slimband and I wanted to contact my slimband clinic here in Toronto and learned they closed down because their malpractice! I started to do research about it and that's when I saw an article about butchered slimbands and this Women's College Hospital's doctor who removes slimbands! I will send you this website to read the article: https://www.rcinet.ca/en/2018/01/12/gastric-band-bleeding-pain-cbc-marketplace/. It doesn't say anything about charging money, but I am just wondering if somebody would be in a life threatening situation and would have no money for the surgery than they would let that person to die?! I see so many people here with slimband problems and will be more and more in the future and somehow I do not see how we would get any help from anywhere!

Hi! In Women's College Hospital, Toronto, Dr. David Urbach removes butchered slim bands on a daily basis!

Hi everybody! I just heard that the best solution would be in our cases to file for a class-action lawsuit against Allergan Inc., the maker of the Lap-Band device.

Please, count me in for any future class action too!
