I had my lapband done by Dr Trotter in April. I just found out he is no longer practicing in WA effective this week because he's moving to South Dakota. :biggrin: (just had all that follow up blood drawn last week and now no one to review it!)

I was told to follow up with Bright, Rawlins, Spitz or Pennings. Does anyone have any advice or positive/negative comments regarding these docs?

Thanks!

Hello firefly,

Did you ever see another Dr. in Spokane. I also had Dr. Trotter do my band, but I didn't find out about him leaving until November or so because he had released me to yearly appointments only. I am having my family physician do my bloodwork but would like to have a back-up Dr. because of the revision surgery that I had. I would feel better having someone set up just in case there would ever be a need. I have not had a fill in over a year and fortunately am still at a good fill level. I noticed that you looked at my profile and sent me a message, have we met before? e-mail me if you would like to talk further. :thumbup:

I am moving to Coeur D'Alene and am interested in a fill doctor in the area. Let me know what you find out.:rolleyes2:
