Denver surgeons?

[DrewsLou 3]

Anyone know anything about any surgeons in Denver? I had a consult with Dr. Kirshenbaum and really liked him. Has anyone used him or know anyone that has?

Thanks!

Try Dr. Johnell in Greeley. It's a bit of a drive, but it's where I get my fills done. I love his PA, Paula. She's never missed hitting my port! SHe is very conservative on fills, which can be frustrating.

The name of Dr. Johnell's clinic is NCMC Specialty.

Good luck

Hi Kim,

do you go to a support group in Denver or in the Thornton/ Northglenn area? :rofl:

I'm trying to get everything lined up for my first MD visit but would like to talk to a few bandsters one on one.

Thanks for your help,

Carola

I was just banded 2/2/2006 in Columbus, Ohio and will be relocating to Denver in late March. If anyone could help with directing me to a fill doctor and or support groups I would appreciate it.:help:

Looking forward to moving and losing west!

I'm interested in Dr. Kirshenbaum, too. I will likely end up being self-pay and he has a fair price. Unfortunately, I can't find ANYTHING on the guy other than his webiste and some stuff about him do laser hemmerhoid removal.

I know of Dr Kirshenbaum very well, he is one of the best surgeons around, however, he is not experienced with LAPBAND, has not done any when I called his office last year, he is a friend of the family and I ended up going with Dr Snyder, he's awesome.

just one question - I have to go in tomorrow for my post op's- Dr. Snyders and the hospitals. What did you have to do?:help:

Congrats Archermom!! You will have to let us know how it goes. I am still deciding on a surgeon... let me know how you like Dr Snyder!

FYI... when I met with Dr Kirshenbaum in January he told me he had done 8 bands so far.
