I'm calling on all Manitoba nurses, and/or other proffesionals! I had my lap band done in Mexico. I have to go to Saskatchewan to get my fills. We need someone here in the province who is willing to do fills and get trained for patients done outside of this country. There is a great need here in this province. If you want to make extra money, and help others, you would be a great asset. We do have the lap band procedure here in Manitoba, but no one here will look after a patient done in Mexico. I'm sure it has to do with ego and maybe a little greed. My procedure was less than half the price they charge in Canada, and my care was wonderful. I have nothing but good things to say about my surgery in Mexico. Yet, I have to leave the province to have care?! If I'm willing to pay $5,000.00 I can have fills done in Toronto! I'm not willing to do that. obesity, and compulsive eating is a disease. I hope we can find someone here in Manitoba to step up to the plate. It's a real shame that we don't have affordable after care!
