I am new to this forum. I have finally decided that Lap Band surgery is for me after much debate. I have a BMI of 37 and high blood pressure. I live in Belgium. I want to know if any one can recommend a doctor out here or tell me how to verify a docotr credentials. Thanks

I have a tendency to find information...maybe that's why I'm in Information Management. Try checking out this Doc, I was in the UK forum and his name has come up numerous times. Check out this link for his info. http://www.medicalto...-christiaan.php As far as credentials, I know in the states there are "Center's of Excellence" that the best surgeons are a part of.

Hope it get's you in the right direction...
