I am due for my first fill and have had a bunch of stupid personal problems. My car and cell phone were stolen, my key to storage was on my key ring, blah blah blah....anyways, can someone please help with Dr Lopez's phone number? I could find it myself but it will take some serious doing. Any help would be appreciated. Or email?

Have lost 15 pounds since my surgery on Nov. 19th and have only had a few problems.

I am looking forward to my first fill!!!!

Thanks!

Christine,

I just returned from Dr. Lopez in Mexico. You can call Anita or Diane to schedule you a fill. Anita is at 866-409-0582, and Diane is at 866-716-4660. All of their new numbers our on their web sites, www.obesitycontrolclinic.com or www.golapband.com.

Sorry about all of your situations that occurred, I hope this helps.

I was just wondering, who are these people? They work for Lopez? Why have I not heard of them before? I have called Lopezs office 4 times in the last two weeks. I leave messages in both english and spainish. Kind of bothers me.

I never said this before due to the attitude I recieved by just being a Lopez patient but I too went through Belighter. The only thing I can say is that I did not spend on extra cent on my surgery either way. They neither helped or hurt me. I did not need them but they made me feel better before my surgery. God sorts those situations out. I let it go.

I wish people who used or will use Lopez could feel more comfortable posting here since it is easier than other sites. The last thing I wanted after surgery was the sarcasim I recieved by a few certain people here.

Thanks in advance.

Christine

Hi Christine,

I am the senior patient coordinator for Dr. Lopez and Anita is also a patient coordinator. I have had my band for 3 years, and am at goal weight. Anita has had her band for 10 months, and is close to goal weight.

We are at your service; please call us directly for your post op needs.

Hi LegallyBlond and Diane,

Legally Blond,

Diane said it. Call her or Anita about fill appointments and they can get you scheduled. It is so much easier calling the US to get appointments scheduled.

Since you went through Belighter, they should help you but then again they didn't make anything off you did they. It should be about caring and thoughtfulness. I have had calls already and I have been home one day. I was also faxed some information(nutrition) that I left at the hospital. Patient coordinators are great when they care and it isn't about commisiion. I felt they were concerned for my health and well being first. Sure they didn't go to the hospital with me but they called and called my family and relayed messages. That takes more time and is so much more important than holding my hand. They held my wife's hand and really relaxed her and my three daughters.

Sure, now Mr. Tiesi will probably threaten to come after my daughters. I am tired of threats and Belighter.

Know you always have surgeon aftercare and call Anita or Diane for help. I posted both numbers earlier for you.

Best of luck.

Diane and Anita,

Thanks for your help. My wife said you two made her feel great.
