HELP! I need a fill in Toronto!



Recommended Posts

Lap-Band adjustment Doctor in Toronto FOUND!!!

Help Lap Banders, please! My Family Doctor won't give me a referral for a fill nurse she doesn't know.

SlimBand won't do it for me because I am a patient of Dr. Yau who resigned from them.

Credit Valley in Mississauga does only 'Allergan' bands and I have 'Vanguard'.

ANYBODY????????? I am getting obese again.

I am willing to go anywhere in Ontario, or Canada or USA.

Desperate SlimBand orphan.

Orphan no more!

Dr. Ali Hazrati , a truly nice Doctor, Bariatric Surgeon does Lap Band adjustment at his clinic on 5734 Yonge Street
416-222-1932
$120 per adjustment
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!

Have you called Smartshape...they do Allergan, but should be skilled enough to fill a Vanguard band. Maybe for a fee, they may help the stranded Slimband paitients????? They are in Mississauga. Can't hurt to try.

Were you banded by Slimband?

Well, I guess they don't want to get involved. There may be legal implications.

I wonder if you could find someone across the border in the USA?

I hope things work out for all the stranded patients :(

I was banded by Smartshape in September.

Yes, unfortunately I was banded at SlimBand. I wish Smatshape existed back in 2004, they seem to be nice. Slimband post op is non existent!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
