woodkd 0 Posted August 22, 2004 Hi, I will be at Community Memorial Hospital, across the street from his office. Since I'm self pay they have a package rate I'm doing. The upside is I get free fills for life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Penni60 45 Posted August 22, 2004 I had my port revision at the outpatient clinic of that hospital. Was treated very well. Very attentive and was very professional. Dr. Billy on top of being good looking he is very professional and proficient. And his bedside manner is so caring and supportive. Where do you live in relation to Ventura? I am in Van Nuys, CA. I have my next appt with Dr. Billy on Sept 23. Keep us posted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woodkd 0 Posted August 22, 2004 I live in Montrose, it's north of Glendale against the Foothills. I'm so glad to have found another bandster in my area!! I am gone next week at a conference, I get back and a couple of days later I get my band. I feel like someone has hit fast forward!!! I am so glad it is finally here! I have had to jump through some hoops but am so glad I did. Dr. Billy is great as his support staff. I'll post again when I'm on the other side.

Penni60 45 Posted August 22, 2004 Debbie: Yes Dr. BIlly and his staff are soooooooooooo supportive. He encourages us to make sure we come back every 4 to 6 weeks and no more than that as he sees the best results with those visits. He really takes the time to explain things and gives you reasons why things are the way they are. Please do keep us posted on how you are doing. If you want my home number then PM me and I will send it to you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
