New Spokane Lap Band Dr.



Recommended Posts

There's a new doc in town doing fills, Dr. Vivian Moise. She is a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation doctor with a subspecialty in spinal cord medicine, but since she has friends and patients who have had fills, she got trained recently. :)

She charges $275 for the first visit with fill, $250 thereafter. She will begin taking appointments in June 2009. 747-5242 for info.

I have another suggestion: I live in Lewiston, Idaho a short 2 hour drive from Spokane. Joan Richardson is at the Clearwater Clinic in Lewiston and she does the fills or unfills for $100.00

I go to Dr. Vivian Moise for my fills. She is located in downtown Spokane and her fees are very reasonable. $250 for first fill and $200 for follow up fills. Her office number is 747-5242.

Thank you for the information.

I have not had a lap bank yet. If I do, I will go to Mexico as I have no insurance and cannot afford the states.

Do you have yours band? if so, who did yours and how are you coping with it? I guess I'm really scared as my everyday Dr. said "NO"!! :)

lulugirl,

that's fine for those who want to drive 2 hours, spend another hours or so getting a fill, driving home 2 hours, plus incidental time . . . for me, it's too much. i'd rather stay in spokane. dr. moise has done about 5 fills (one unfill) for me and it works out brilliantly.

best of luck wherever you go,

ma'lena

Wow, Im in shock that you are paying so much for your fills!!!! There are 2 ladies that come here from Seattle area and do fills for only $150.00....If you'd like more info let me know, I have there number and I go only to them. They come to Spokane about every 8 weeks or so....I missed them 2 weeks ago so I drove over to Seattle and got my fill on Sat. Anyways, if you'd like the info let me know....

The roads this time of year are, well, unpredictable.

It matters not where you were banded as long as you have, or can get, your operative notes and device information.

Hi. I was banded in Mexico on March 23, 2011. I have my x-rays and operative notes. Looking for a Spokane-area doctor for reasonably priced fills. Your posts are very helpful. Thanks! Do you have any updated information on fill doctors?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
