AFTERCARE RETURNS TO ABILENE!!!!

I am from Abilene and was banded and then abandoned by Dr Einspanier.

I have had an absolutely MISERABLE time since then --> NO ONE WOULD TAKE ME ON FOR AFTERCARE.

I'm sure those from Abilene in the similar situation have had the same problems and will breath the same sight of a relief because...

CARE IS COMING BACK TO ABILENE

Have you seen all those big green bulletin boards around town for "Bariatric Solutions"?

I didn't really take them seriously... how good could a place be that needs to cover a town almost 200 miles away with giant boards advertising 'seminars with door prizes' and 'summer lapband specials.' BUT they do actually take a lot of insurance plans so I thought I'd give them a shot.

I visited them yesterday in Dallas and was delighted not only by how nice everyone was, but by the news they gave me: they are soon to begin deploying something to Abilene called a "BandWagon" (ha, right?) - for FILLS!! And yes, it bears repeating, they take insurance!!!

I didn't get the timetable for this because I was too busy dancing for glee.

My only question is: what took them so long? Abilene has been a completely untouched market crying for care for a YEAR now. C'mon!! I'm legitimately surprised that no other enterprising dr/facility has swooped in to fill the need before this.

... though I guess I answered my own question: it's ABILENE.

Oh, well...

but good news, yes???
