:angry:Does anyone go there in Woodbridge, VA? Whats going on with the staff and Drs. there. Dr. Mahtemework is not there and they will not discuss where he is. I aske dot speak or see Dr. Tran and they said hes not seeing band patients or hes not there either. Dr. halmi is the only one seeing patients and the schedule is so tight you cant get in. I am still not haveing restriction and I have 9ccs in my 11cc band - im worried now if something is not right with my band - did it slip - is on properly. everyone else i talk to has restriction before 7.5ccs. Any advice or help and anyone know any info on the office let me know.:thumbup:

I Am not sure where the dr. Was first, but a google search showed Dr. M. To be here:

Dr. Yohannes Mahtemework D.O.

Surgery

7531 113th St Apt 2C

Forest Hills , NY - 11375

240-353-8665

I'd not be surprised at them not telling you where he went if left their practice.

As to you not feeling restriction yet, try not to compare yourself to others. Keep getting fills. The more you have in your band, the less fill it takes to be noticeable. Best wishes to you!

I go to the office in Woodbridge, VA. Dr. Mahtemework was my surgeon as well. I have an appt on 5/28 at 11am for my first fill. I wonder what in the world is going on? I really hope this wasn't a big mistake.

I have an appt too on the 28th at 2pm. Do you want to switch times with me. I really wanted a early appt because I come 45 minutes away to get there and that time of day the traffic will be awful. They told me I will be seeing Dr. Halmi that day

I am sorry, but I can't switch you. I live in Mechanicsville, MD and that is over an hour away. Where do you live? I am going to call and confirm my appt and see what they say.

Hi,

I am a patient of Dr. Halmi's. Dr. M. stopped performing surgery and he is now teaching. Dr. Halmi mentioned that at one of the support groups. I don't know what happened to Dr. Tran, I spoke with him about a month or so ago, when I called the answering service.
