Fill Dr. in Ontario Canada



Recommended Posts

I am interested in getting banded in Mexico, but can't seem to locate a doctor to do the fills. I live near Windsor but am willing to go to Toronto if necessary or even to Detroit. Any input is greatly appreciated.

I was banded by DR Tin in Mississauga, you may want to find a doctor in Ontario to do the banding. His cost was $15,000 CDN and all fills and everything else is coverred. I don't know the cost in Mexico but If you can get someting done locally you may be better off in the long run. If you speak to your family Doctor they should know someone in the Windsor area. If not I would gladly give you doctor Tin's phone number, he is the chief of surgery at the Credit Valley Hospitall im Mississauga so his credentials are strong.

Good luck

Thanks for the response. I am going with a doctor in Missassauga because of the fills mostly. Also I have heard wonderful things about him and I am very confident in his credentials. I am meeting with him on Monday and am very anxious. Congrats on your success so far. continued success to you!!! :D

Cheeringgranny,

Who's your doctor in Missisauga? Would it be Dr. Cobourn (or Dr. Tin as mentioned before)? I think I'm going with Dr. Cobourn. Let me know how it goes!

Hi Everyone!

I got my band in Hungary, 16/01/06. It was only $5000 + planticket and I was staying with my parents. I am feeling OK, but so far I only lost 10 lbs.

I know a fill would be too soon, but I am looking for a Dr. in Calgary, Alberta who could do it for me(later on). Please let me know, if anybody has information on this.

Thanks Kati

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
