K@t 38 Posted February 15, 2006 Hey guys, I know that many of you have done a lot of research when it comes to this surgery. I live in Portugal and I have been trying to find out about it here. I have an appt. with the bariatric doctor but only on the 24th! And I just can't wait that long! I haven't been able to find any information so far about the surgery here like what doctors might perform the surgery and also how much it might cost here. If any one knows of some place where I can find some information I would appreciate it. I googled lap band in portugal, lap band surgery in portugal, etc. and I really didn't find much except for a few newspaper articles about it. Any way, any help is appreciated! :help: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

K@t 38 Posted February 15, 2006 Hey Zoe, Thanks for the help. I know that they perform it here in Portugal, I just haven't found out where. I guess I'm just going to have to wait and see what the doctor says on the 24th. Hey nice Portuguese by the way! Thanks for the support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
