Frisky 1,

The support groups are free and everyone is welcome. I go in Aurora on Sat. morn. and it is only 1 time a month. The help there is tremendous and I wouldn't miss one. Go and check it out! I hate when they are over. Give it a try! Kathy Let me know if you go!

Hello Colorado Bandsters!

I am going to be moving to Colorado (Denver area) this May. Colorado is really home to me as I have lived there most of my life but have spent the last 2 years in Virginia. I am SO excited to be coming home!

I am also very concerned that I am going to have a difficult time finding a Doctor who will take over my care once I have moved. Things are going so well for me so far with this band and I want to keep going in the right direction. I have read that it is difficult to find a doctor who will take over the care of a patient who was banded by a different doctor. Does anyone know of any Colorado Doctors who might be willing?

:biggrin:Try calling Dr. James B. Smith in Pueblo Co he is my Dr and is wonderful. I think he charges 150.00 or so for a fill. The phone # is 719-561-4300

good luck

If you cannot find a Dr in Denver, my surgeons are in Fort Collins.

Northern Colorado Surgical Associates

They are an awesome group of guys and their staff is wonderful. They will accept any patient.

best of luck!
