Lap Banding In Belgium

Hello All!

I am seriouslly contemplating having the surgery in Belgium, and wondered if anyone else had any experience of going there for it?

Also is there any known issues with UK doctors performing the fills and post-op care once one returns home.

Does anyone know anything about the "french band" lowate AB produce also?

I'm currently 223lbs and would love this to be the tool to help me lose the weight I so badly need to.

Hope you are all having a good sunday.

Which french band are you referring to the french mid-band or the french heliogast band? I had the mid-band and would highly recommend it and I am considering getting another one over the Inamed. I hear great things about the Heliogast too. I saw the great deal in Belgium online and if the eurodollar wasn't doing better than the American, and the travel expenses weren't so much more than traveling 3 states down to Mexico I'd be considering it. I loved Dr. Frering in Lyon, France not a cheap as Belgium I think 6,400 eurodollars or somewhere close to that. Let me know which band you are talking about and I might be able to give info.

Best of luck

Hey there,

I don't know much about Belgium, but I'm thinking about going to a doctor in France. Called Dr. Anfroy. You might want to try www.euroband.org for some more info on doctors in Europe. I have heard good things from people who went to Belgium as well as France. PM me and I can give you some more info.
