Hello everyone,

After reading this list for the past few days, I decided to join in. I have been considering lap band surgery for years, and have finally decided to go for it. I'm considering having the surgery in either the Seattle area or Mexico, but as I've been reading, finding a fill doctor can be challenging if you have surgery away from where you live.

I'd be interested to hear other people's stories, particularly anyone who is from B.C. like me and those who have done their surgery in Mexico. I plan to post in the doctors forums to ask about experiences with specific doctors.

This is definitely a big step and I'm excited to take it, but I also want to be very careful. I'm definitely mindful of patient coordinators and marketing people who pose as patients, so I'm being extra careful about evaluating what is said online. In any case, this looks like a great place to do my research.

That's why they interested me, as Bellingham is much closer. But it seems there is another place, Northwest Weight Loss that also has an office in Bellingham, but I don't know if they do the surgery there or just post-op follow-ups and fills.

I don't know if they do or not but you could email them and ask. But before anything make sure you will have after care if you seeking care in Canada.
