Hello Dubai Bandsters!

Are there any Bandsters who live in Dubai or the UAE? Is there a support group with organized meetings? I know that Gastric Band Surgery is performed in Dubai at the Emirates Hospital. I'd love to get together with fellow Bandsters while I'm in town. I'll be visiting several times / year.

Best regards,

Debbie

Hey Axt,

welcome to the group... congratulations on taking the step to get the surgery done:)...m still waiting on mine as welll....if u dont mind me asking where does Dr Faruq Badiuddin practice ? i mean which hospital or clinic and where?...

Btw would love to chat...as we all here to help each other and motivate each other :frown:

Hi Akheya....thanks for the reply!

Well Dr Faruq practices at many surgeries in Dubai and internationally. his website is www.surgery.ae - they have all been very helpful. had all the tests done now, so all set to go on July 1st! i was going to go through cosmesurge who also use Chris de bruyne, but once i knew he was rarely here i changed my mind. :thumbup:

Where are you located? When is your surgery?

I'm trying to prepare for the pre-op diet, was told to do slim-fast but cant as allergic to milk. so got to find a completely fat free diet that is simple. :thumbup:

Take care
