Does Dr. Eric Pinnar charge the same program fee that his father, Dr. Robert Pinnar charges?

hey vcompton...I was also done by Dr. Pinnar. Are you going to go to any of the support meetings?

Hope you are feeling much better. I was actually off the hydrocodene a couple days after the surgery, although I found sleeping on my back with an ice pack helped.

PM me if you'd like to get together or if you are going to any of the meetings. [/quote

Hi, sorry I very seldom get on this site...I just saw this message today... I have not been to any meetings....Did you have yours done by Robert Pinnar.... (the father) I did and they were great.... I feel good...I have lost like 30 pounds since Oct 12th...and could have lost more but I asked to prolong the first fill until another week...I had some discomfort in the mornings...That has gone away now...How about you....? When did you get banded...I have not been to any meetings yet.... Have you...My name is Vicki... :clap2:
