Hiya,

I'm hoping to be banded soon (in Toronto) and live in SK, does anyone know if there are any docs in western Canada who will carry out fills?

Thanks,

Buffie

Buffie!

Dr. Mitchell in Calgary!

Mandi! lol

*edit* - I got this from another post:

The doctor in Calgary that does fills is Dr. Philip Mitchell 403-264-6720

He's at the Peter Laughheed Centre and charges $100. for a fill.

Thanks Mandi,

I hope you have a nice flight and GOOD LUCK THIS WEEK!!!

Does anybody know of other doctors who do fills in Alberta? Like say, in Edmonton...?

PS

Woohoo! I finally have a ticker!!!

In Alberta, other than Dr. Mitchell in Calgary?

They do banding in Edmonton... Dr's Davey and Birch, BUT I don't know if they do fills on patients that aren't their own.

I would call the Royal Alex hospital, ask for the number for the Bariatric Clinic (or Program), and that should put you in touch with someone who can tell you if they can do fills for 'other' patients. If you do, post back and let us know what they say!

Mandi

I already did that. I was told that Dr. Davey does NOT do fills for non-patients.

Oh MAN.

All I can say is "DER!" That's no good.

I will have an answer as to who DOES very soon.

...that, or I will be back here complaining about who DOESN'T. lol
