Dr. Lance Tin in Mississauga



Recommended Posts

Hi,

I posted earlier in the week asking about Dr. Coburn. You all had great advice, thanks. I also have a consult with Dr. Lance Tin in Mississauga. Has anyone been to him? If yes, how was your experience?

Where does he work out of Jacklyn? Never heard of his association with SWLC so assume he must have a different practice.

Thats a very nice article about Dr. Tin. I had bookmarked the following website a while ago when I first heard that there were a couple of other doctors doing lapband in the Toronto area:

Breast Augmentation Toronto liposuction Clinic Cosmetic Surgeon | TC Clinic

Looks like this clinic does a lot of other plastic surgery procedures in addition to lapband. Does anyone know how experienced Dr. Tin is with lapband?

Had a consult with them, but cancelled because people on here hadnt heard of him, and there was so many people happy with TLBC. Also i could go into many more reasons, but thats one of them

I had a consult next week too and cancelled. I just did not like that no one had heard of him either. I now have a appt with the SWLC in Mississauga.

Congrats Jacklyn, on your consult. It's too bad that people are ending up cancelling on Dr. Tin, but hey, I totally understand, I would have too! I would have needed to hear from other people who've seen my surgeon, and not being able to find any would be freaky! There's probably some kind of network of them around somewhere, but hopefully they'll be represented here someday. You don't owe him anything, and why would you take a chance on an unknown, for the same price! when you can go with someone who tons of people have gone with!?

Good choice and good luck :car:

When you have a clinic like this, half of it is business, the other half medicine, Tin's clinic realllllly doesnt know how to get themselves in the ring with the others. Although i think its mostly a plastic surgery place, they might get more business if they would change a few things.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
