I Need to find a Dr.

[Lisa K 0]

:help: Hello,

I'm new to this site. I need to find a Dr. that's affordable. I was going to go to Mexico & have it done, but I've been reading some bad things about geting banded in Mex. Does anyone know of any affordable good Doctors in California.

Have you checked out the doctor listing on obesityhelp.com? That might be a good starting point for your search.

Thanks for the infor. I'm going to look at site right now. Are you glad you had it done? This might be a dumb question do you miss food? How do you feel?

I am very glad I had it done. Even if I don't lose another pound at this point (unlikely), it's been enough to make me feel like a normal person again. I feel great! There's a few things that I can't eat anymore that I really thought I would miss (like rice and potatoes), but I don't find I miss them at all. There are fleeting moments when I think, "gee, some rice would really go great with this," but I usually find I'm not hungry enough for it anyway. It's a totally different ballgame when you are satisfied on less. Hope that helps!

If you do go to mexico you should check out Dr Oritz. I have talked to alot of people and it sounds like he is the best down there. Best of luck to you.

I'm still trying to get approved through insurance, but my self pay back up plan is to look more into Dr Tersigni in Coose Bay, Oregon Bay Bariatrics - Steve Tersigni, MD - Coos Bay, Oregon

Denise had this to say about him: "I was banded by Dr. Tersigni on the coast and he charges 10,000.00 It didn't seem worth it to me to go to Mexico when Dr. Tersigini is 5 min from my house. He's really great. I know a lot of people come from Portland

to go to him. The lady that was banded the same day as me by him,

lives in Portland."
