Hi Sara,

I'm from Colorado. I'm still waiting to be banded. There are a number of docs around here. What part of Colorado are you moving to? I've heard great things about Dr. Johnell (the surgeon I've seen) in Greeley and I know there is a group of doctors in Canon City and a new one in Thornton (near Denver).

im really not sure yet ........i want to go to a school in lakewood, so probably going to look for a place around there to begin , and im going to come out there for a visit in march ( but only for a couple of days ) then hopefully ill be out there before the end of the year ...........ive read about dr johnell on obesityhelp.com he does sound like a very good dr ., when are you going to be banded ?? my surgery is set up for next friday ( i cant wait )

sara

Wow, that's so cool that your surgery is happening soon. I'm still waiting, waiting, waiting for insurance approval. I'm hoping to get it scheduled for the first part of April, but am just sitting here quite impatiently! Did I mention I hate waiting? There's a Yahoo group of Colorado bandsters that I found really informative. Just go to yahoo and search for Colorado Bandsters. It might be helpful in choosing a fill doctor.

Good luck!

Becky
