Anndallei 0 Posted February 14, 2006 You might check with "Jack" from Oregon (quote below). I'm sure he must have done some researching of area doctors before choosing his doctor in Portland. Use search, put in oregon or jack, and his posts will come up. "I'm in East Linn County......and I used Dr. Hong in Portland....great surgeon, everything has gone well for me..... The Band has certainly improved MY life....." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tricia K. 0 Posted February 23, 2006 There's also a Dr. Emma Patterson out of Portland. I've heard nothing but good things about her. Best of luck to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Debbie06 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Dr Patterson is a good Dr. (Or thats what they say) but she won't give you any breaks for not having any Insurance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tricia K. 0 Posted March 26, 2006 There are others in Bend who do banding. I believe there are other Band surgeons, but when I was looking 18 months ago, mostly they were RnY docs. I'm sure this is changing.You are correct, sir. Their names are Dr. Marinus Koning and Dr. Stephen Archer and their contact info is as follows: 2705 NE Connors Suite B Bend, OR 97701 Phone: (541) 322-5753 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhotoNut 7 Posted March 26, 2006 Dr. Patterson trained the surgeon who did my band here in Boise, Idaho. He did a fantastic job if that counts for anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dody 0 Posted March 30, 2006 Dr Patterson is a good Dr. (Or thats what they say) but she won't give you any breaks for not having any Insurance. Dr. Patterson does loads of Medicare patients. I would call that a very good thing for any dr. to do. She is excellent and in fact taught the doctors in Boise how to do the procedure. The woman knows her stuff!!
