I had my surgery in Montreal with Dr. Christeau. At the Royal Vic.

It has been very successful and I have had no complications.

I think this might be the same Dr. S. Miller that has a practice in Montreal as Carmella, his assistant had mentioned that he works out of Drummondville as well. This is good news, that you highly recommend him What can you tell me, I only go January 10th for the consultation and then on Jan. 24th for the procedure but would love to hear what your experiences were.

Thanks

I had mine with Dr. Denis at the Sacre-Couer Hospital. I paid 12000 and it was great.

514-331-4322 is his office number for more info......

I live in Qubec and I am considering the surgery. What was the costs for Montreal and Dummondville, if I can ask?

I paid around $5,000 in Drummondville. There is about a year-long waiting list.

Je vais être opéré par le docteur Miller dans quelque jours. En effet, les coûts sont de 5000$ et couvrent l'achat du Lap band. La chirurgie est couverte par la RAMQ.

En passant, je me suis informé et mes assurances vont payer pour le 5000$.

Vous avez de la chance. Vous avez trouve un tres bon prix. J'en ai paye 16000$ et l'OHIP ne couvre rien de tout. (Je regrette mais mon ordinateur est anglophone. Ainsi les accents lui manquent.)

Par rapport de cette operation, je vous souhaite bon voyage.

Bonjour Green:smile:

Qu'est que c'est que l'OHIP? Es-tu québécois?

J'ai été opéré le 31 janvier et tout se passe bien jusqu'à maintenant.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
