Dr. Tin - Toronto Cosmetic Clinic

If ya want good seafood, go to a place that specializes in seafood. If ya want awesome pizza, go to a place that specializes in pizza. If you want a lapband, go to a place that specializes in lapband surgery.

Just a thought. Looking at the TCC website, they do a lil of EVERYTHING......if ya know what I mean jellybean.

Now, if I was lookin' to have my hymen re-installed....well....then it might be a consideration!!!

Seriously...ya, do the consult....and go where your gut tells you....if it is for the sake of saving only a grand...I'd still go to the place that specializes in the surgery as opposed to the place that has it as one of dozens of menu items.

Righton Yoda. As I said on an earlier post " knowledge on some Master of none". I went to the leaders in Canada Dr. Joffe and Dr. Yau who pioneered the banding in Canada. I have had no problems with my band in fact I am at the time I need a fill as I can eat everything. Doddie

Yes, might as well get as many consults, get a feel for what we're getting into. But yes, it's those little things that might be an indication of where they are best prepared. But yes, not judging too quickly too, they might talk to us about this later on, as for the ammount of surgeries he has been doing gastric banding for 2 years. And a surgeon who has been in private practice since 1988 and has a ton of credentials is always good.

I'll ask when i go but it looks like it might be the only operation Dr. Tin does, and that others do the rest....but we'll see. Because it's a team of surgeons. Also, yeah, i definitely wouldnt choose a place because of the 1000$.
