Getting pissed off

Has anyone else called TLBC and only get their voicemail, I HATE VOICEMAIL, I sent an email to maral, and the only response i get is that i sent it to the wrong person, she tells me to email someone else...i didnt pay 16000 to get the run around. I'm venting right now, but seriously...I even talked to the receptionist, told her, im calling and only getting voicemail, asked her if anyone is there, she says yeah, i say, transfer me to someone who is THERE, she does, guess what i get....voicemail. Like, do they concentrate only on the people in clinic and if the phone is ringing, sorry too bad for you, well...i cant travel 4 hours for every question. Really, i'm sure they're great but this is not starting off on the right foot.

Donna D, don't get discouraged, i havent lost really anything since surgery either. Just staying steady, but i dont care, i'm just enjoying food instead of liquids lol. Anyways, once we go for our fills, then it should do some good...hopefully i'm not one of those who needs 3-4 fills before i feel any restriction.

Just scrolling thru the posts about poor response from TLBC. Maral is on leave for awhile so you may have to call back and ask the operator who is taking her place. Also, the best time I have had in calling is first thing in the morning before all the operations and appointments start. If I don't have a call back in 24 hours I call again. Also, call the number and punch zero. You get a real life operator tell her you are concerned your calls not being returned and to put you directly on to someone in charge. No question the clinic is busy, you just have to be persistant. Hope these hints help. Doddie.

Hi: I will be in Toronto on the 14th &15th. I will be seeing Dr. Yau on the 14th and then surgery on the 15th. My port has flipped. Anyone there that see a "big woman" hope you say hi. Doddie Oh! Donna D. don't be impatient, I have only taken off less than a lb a week without much exercise. Are you exercising?????? Doddie
