want to get banded

Hi ,

My name is Renee. I live in The Bahamas and I am seriously thinking about getting banded. I want to know how is the percedure done and

is there any hospital in the greater Miami area that provides this service

and what is the prices like because my insurance will not pay so I will have to pay out of pocket.

Does anyone know if anybody in the Bahamas has had this percedure done?

Hello Renee,

I looked up on the internet how I found my surgeon and it is still there.

Go to lap-band.com

You fill in a short name and address and it brings up the closest to you.

I put in Miami and came up with Dr Nestor De La Crus-munoz for example. Phone 305 856-4385

Good luck,

edie

Hi Renee, I am not sure about Miami, but Welcome to LAP-BAND.com is definitely the site to go too. You might try our Florida thread too, maybe there are some folks there from Miami that can give you a good recommendation as well.
