Anyone from WA State?

I am once again considering the Lap Band and would like to know if anyone is from WA that has been banded?

Time4Me,

I live in Spokane,WA. I got my lapband on 12/21/05 in Post Falls, ID. What part of Washington do you live in?

I am on the Coast about 55 miles from Olympia.

What doctors are you going to?

I'm going to Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey, MX.

It seems legit, since he worked for Inamed and offers you an Inamed card with an ID# for your band. The package is $10,600.

You live out by longbeach?

I went to UWMC for my band...fairly new program, longer history with by-pass, but on my insurance plan, so that made the choice a little easier.

I am 3 months post-op, down 41 lbs since surgery, 54 pounds total, and couldn't be happier!

Great to know there are so many WA and NW folks here!

I too am being banded at UWMC. I think it will be late September/early October. They seem to have a great staff - I am getting anxious!!!
