Fill Doctor in Edmonton Alberta?



Recommended Posts

Dana, come here : Canada Local Lap-Band Support - Lap Band Talk Forum - The largest forum for Lap Band Surgery Discussion and Lap Band Surgery Support and ask that question. You'll have more luck with Canadians. I don't remember anyone mentioning any fill Dr's in Edmonton, but that doesn't mean there isn't. Someone will be able to answer you, and if nothing else, you have lots of choice in Calgary!

The last date on this thread is 2008. Is there any additional information on Fill Doctors in Edmonton. I called the Allen Clinic this AM and the Lap-Band® Dr there will only do his own surgical patients.

I was banded in Mexico so my options are more limited. I now go to Dr. Peggy Burke in Calgary who will do fills for anyone despite where/who banded them. I tried Dr. Jim in Grande Prairie but it became very complicated as he wanted me to have a GP in Grande Prairie in case something went wrong (despite the fact that he is in a hospital! Dr Burke is very pleasant, her hours are very accommodating and she charges $100.

hi the info I got from Slimband in Toronto is there is a clinic in Edmonton which is located at 10020 101A Avenue NW. I don't have a ph number but maybe the TO office could give it to you. I was told they do fills there for Slimband patients.

Would it be possible to get Dr Burke's contact info? I am being banded in Winnipeg later this month but live in Calgary?

Thank you!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
