Edmonton Fill Doctor?

Hi All,

Does anyone know of a Doctor in Edmonton who does fills and adjustments for lap band patients who had the procedure performed in Mexico.

Have not had contact with Dr Daniel Birch yet.

Dr Doug Davey only does his own patients.

I will also try Dr Mitchell in Calgary.

Thanks,

Dana:rolleyes:

I know that Dr. Mitchell in Calgary will do your fill for you.

Let me see if I can find one in Edmonton for you though. I have a freind who may know.

Hi Dana, I am in Edmonton also. I had my band done in Toronto and I just fly back there I havent found anyone here yet. What band did you get in Mexico?

Called Dr Daviduck, he only does patients of Dr Coburn.

I have called Dr Mitchell in Calgary and signed up with him. He will be fine till I go home to New Zealand.

Thanks for helping, everyone!

Dana

Sorry about not getting back to you about. I have not been able to contact my friend about this as she has been away.

Good luck with Dr, Mitchell.

May I ask you who did your band in Mexico?

There are a few docs here that do the Toronto bands here, why would you fly back and forth. Don't know any that touch Mexican bands, but I did find one who will do mine from Denver.

Hi Cindy, Sorry I was a bit slack getting back to you! I have just been down to Calgary to see Dr Mitchell. I have been getting my fills from him. He seems to be happy with the fact that I had mine done in Mexico. He now charges $150, and I think he is planning to expand his time. He used to only do fills on a Tuesday or Thursday from 4 to 5pm. But he has been so busy that the time frame is now greater. I will go down in May for a 1:30pm appointment! That means we get home in daylight. Any other queries, I should be online till we head for home for 3 weeks. I can tell you the warmth in New Zealand is calling loudly! Dana

I tried to call Dr. Daviduk (St. Albert) he is nolonger at that clinic His new # is 780-470-3825 The receptionist at his old clinic says that unless things have changed -- he only did fills for Dr. Cobourn.

What is Dr. Mitchell Like ? (Calgary) That is my bigest fear -- Having the Lapband in Mexico and not finding anyone to fill it here.

I thought this might help you. I get my fills (for free), was banded in Mexico, by Dr. Jim at the Grande Prairie Hosp. He's a radioligist, does many of them (perfectly under flouro). You will need a doctor referral though. I didn't have to wait that long. Good luck

Try Dr. Hartman I got mine done in Denver. He checks out the doctor to see if they are any good before he will do the fills. Luckily I went to an "EXPERT" who specializes in laproscopic surgery.
