Hi just wondered what your experiences were? I went initially to docs 7 months ago to be referred for the band and was put on the waiting list for a weight management course, got my first appointment last week and the dietitian wants me to see a physcologist??!!?? so even longer before the couse starts!This WMC is almost a year long!!! Does anyone know if it's worth my while going back to doctors and asking to be refered again, im at desperate stages now. Thanks

Thanks i have just sent off another email, fingers crossed i get a date soon.

3 stone since Nov is excellent!! I hope my band is as successful as yours has been.Ive not heard back a date from them in april yet tho so i might have to go chase them up.

Yes i know what you mean! It's the failure rate im worried about tho £3000 is a hell of a lot of money to spend for it not to work. Im still angry that after 7 months i still havn't got anywhere through the NHS ive heard of other places where it's taken 6 weeks maximum to first being seen by doctor to actual banding date!

Yeh it is a postcode lottery!! Was it DR Chris you wnt with inn Belguim> I am just waiting to hear back for a date in April to go to Belgium it's skiinning me tho and i cant really afford it i have 2 kids where the money could be better spent but i feel i have no choice now.
