I was banded in St.Francis hospital, Poughkeepsie New York By DR. Dominic Artuso...The surgery probably saved by life, I had a severe Hiatial Hernia that he repaired at the same time he did my lap band...Wonderful doctor..very caring and understanding would recommend him to anyone considering having the surgery...will always be grateful:whoo:

I was banded Sept 11,2007 in Anniston,Alabama by Dr.Black:clap2:

I had mine done in Toronto at the Surgical Weight Loss Centre by Dr. Colbourn. It was a wonderful place. I am very happy with all the Centre did for me. Follow up is great. Where you chose to go is the most important thing. Good luck to all. Bob

Hi!!

I am new to this site but thought I would start here and let you know I had my LapBand put in September 4th, 2007 by Dr. Mumford in Mississauga, Ontario. Had to pay for it myself which in the long run I hope it was worth it.:faint:So far doing okay. Dr. Mumford was very accommodating and everyone at the clinic was great.

Hope this helps.

Hi , if you are in Toronto , call the Surgical Weight Loss Centre. They train other doctors how to do the fills. May be they know someone in your area.

Good luck to you ,

Bob
