Hi everyone,

I am new on here, and I have an appointment with Dr. Watson in March. I just want a little info. concerning the cost involved with this sort of procedure. Has anyone had banding done thru him and if you wouldn't mind just letting me know the approx. cost of the procedure please?

I am really looking forward to the op. but i am worried that I might not be able to afford it.:help:

thanks all.

That's fine with me, you know that you can do pm on here too, I think? but I'm fine with you doing that if you don't feel comfortable mailing on the forum. although I have to let you know that, the people on here are really supportive and really helpful with any questions that you may have. Just something to think about.

Sorry forgot to ask, when is your appt. with Doc Watson?

Hi,

I want to PM someone in this thread who is a Perth person and sees this doctor. I have valid reasons for not being able to post on this forum at this stage so even though I am new, can someone please post to say they don't mind me sending a private message. I don't just want to PM anyone, as I think thats a bit rude considering I am new.

I am waiting to have the lap band. I have an appointment booked with Dr Watson. I weigh about 150Kg, am 170cm tall and female.

Im fine with PM too. I see Dr Watson and was banded in March. If you want to talk im here

Hi JustaGirl,

I was banded with Dr Watson in December 07. I'll send you my email in a PM, so you can contact me outside of here. I'm happy to answer any questions you have.

Cheers!

Thanks Ladies,

I have had a response. I really appreciate all your offers to help.
