Hi Vanessa I am being banded on the 15th October by Dr.C. arriving in Brussels on the 14th so we will be in the same hospital. Im going by Eurostar (as long as another fire doesnt break out), but I beleive that Brussels International Airport is the best place to fly into, and not to far away from the Dr.C Consulting room and the hospital. What hotel are you staying at? I will be staying at the Campanile, so maybe we can meet up and be exicted and scared together lol:eek:

Brussels International is the best airport to fly into but Charloi is ok too just a bit further out. Personally as I'm flying home the sunday before christmas unless I was will to spend double the fare I had to come come home via Charloi-Prestwick with Ryanair but I'm going out with Flybe Glasgow Int - Brussels Int. I'm lucky I'm half an hour from both Glasgow airports so I have the flexibility to do that.

well i'm leaving now everyone,

i will get in touch when i get back and let you know how i have got on. if there are any prayers out there please say a prayer that my surger goes ahead safely and smoothly! thank you!

angiexx

if your staying in hotel take coffee and teabags

the hotel is only about 10 mins from station u can walk it easy i did on 17 sept going and coming back

hi.

I'm taking the standard package, so not sure which hotel I'm at..when I know, I'l let you know so we can meet up..I'd like to say for cofffee but who knows what will stay down!!... lol....

Pat did you take the train to Vilvoorde from the airport and back? How long was the train ride?

Hi Everyone, I'm attempting to send a picture of Dr De Bruyne that I took when I went for my first fill on Thursday. Thought it would satisfy people's curiosity that haven't met him yet! Here's hoping it sends! Kath.

hello please could u tell me how i get in touch with dr bruyne , i cant find any thing on the net kind regards a unhappy over weight simmy

Hi Aminaqc

Just to let you know that booking through Tulia Law is not a scam. The people I shared a room with at the hospital booked through this lady and had to send the money upfront.

However, I would book direct with Dr Chris himself as it is cheaper. They do a package for 4000 Euros which includes Op, hotel and taxis. You will save a lot of money by booking direct with Dr Chris or his assistant Frederick.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Hi Simmy

The E-mail address for Dr chris is chris.debruyne@advalvas.be

You can also E-mail his assistant Frederick frederik.serneels@ecfs.be

If you are going to book the op, its best to do so through either Dr Chris or Frederick as it works out a lot cheaper by taking out their package.

Good luck.
