Hi Everyone!:help: I need some Help finding a good Dr. in Minnesota to have my procedure done. I hope someone can help! I am very positive on having this done! I need to change my life and get my self resepect back! I'm so embarrased with the way I look.. It's time to take steps!

This form may be able to help, good luck. Look around and read.

Hi Jo in MN, I am from North Dakota!! We are neighbors!

Where approximately are you in MN? Southern, northern, eastern or western part of the state?

I am by Duluth MN.. Howdy Neighbor!

Call the hospitals up there and ask them if there is a bariatric surgeon that does surgeries at the hospital. I can give you a great dr but he is in Mpls- kind of a drive for fills and appointments. ( tho the drive to Duluth is still one of my favorites and one we do quite often. Can't say the same for the ride home tho!!!)

Welcome--I hope you find the perfect surgeon very soon!

hey! I'm from Minnesota too! I'm currently living near Minneapolis, but this is the clinic whose informational meeting/consultation I'm going to:

I have a consultation near the end of January with Dr. Ikramuddin. I saw his name mentioned here another time, and I've read up on him a bit. Sounds like there's a great group of surgeons out of that hospital. I chose it because my insurance covers surgery there. Hopefully for me!

Good luck!

Hi Neighbors, I'm from South Dakota, originally from MN (twin cities). I will be banded in Mexico in January and am so thankful for this forum. I will be looking for someone to do my fills, possibly in Mpls or Sioux Falls.

I'm from MN. also I live in west central MN. I used to live in Burnsville, MN. Welcome and good luck to you on your weight loss journey. I started my journey in Oct, 2006, and I'm almost to the banding...hopefully, providing my insurance excepts me( so many hoops) but I am willing to do what I have to get healthy. I have chronic back pain, HBP, bad veins..... It sucks! But I'm patiently waiting for the Banding. I can't suggest any Dr. for you but I can tell you this you have come to the right place for support, they are so great here. Good Luck! let us know how it goes.
