Got my band date....



Recommended Posts

I've been reading and researching for a long time now and have finally got my surgery date. Feb 28th with Dr. Kuri. I've been planning all along to go back to Kuri for my fills. But, now I'm a little hesitant because, I keep hearing about all these erosions and I think it would be best to have someone local. It seems to be real slim pickings for Dr's here. Can you wonderful Oregonians give me some ideas as for Dr's.

Thanks so much...

Hey Tacee, I live in Harrisburg, and my doctor is Steven Tersigni in Coos Bay. It is a little drive but no traffic. Great doctor, wonderful office staff and his PA is wonderful.:)

I looked back in an earlier thread and saw that Dr. Hong is with Patterson. She gives a firm, resounding NO with regard to giving fills to anyone she didn't do the surgery on. I had checked with her 8 or so months ago. So . . Hong is probably the same, but I'll check if I find his number somewhere.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
