Vinnieboomba 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Canadagirl33; Who was your doctor in Bellingham. Was he good. Someone said Dr Woodhead in ladner is not doing anyone but his surgery patience. Thanks Vanman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canadagirl33 0 Posted July 11, 2008 Hi Vanman :biggrin2: I had my surgery done at NWWLS in Everett and go to their satellite office in Bellingham for my fills. Unfortunately they only do fills for their own patients as they are an extremely busy practice. If you are looking for a fill Dr I can ask around and see if I can find someone. Are you willing to travel across the line to do it if necessary? And Hello to all of you other Vancouver area Bandsters as well !!! :biggrin2: It's almost that time of the month again, and this is as good a time as any to post my reminder on here. The meeting will be next week, Wednesday July 16th, at Lions Gate Hospital in conference room C. You are all welcome to join us, whether you've been before or not, we're happy to have you !!! At this point I don't have any suggestions for a topic of discussion so if any of you have something you would like discussed please let me know and I'll try to track down some written material. Feel free to email me with questions or suggestions and hopefully I'll see you all next week !!!!

Doddie63 6 Posted July 17, 2008 Hi Everyone. We had another great turnout to our support meeting at Lions Gate Hospital. We don't have a structured meeting just everyone telling their journey and lots of laughs. Anyone contemplating banding, pre op or post op and support person please come out to the meetings every third Wednesday. It's free and fun.

innotu 0 Posted July 17, 2008 Thanks for the great discussion, advice and support at last night's meeting - it's especially valuable as I prepare for my surgery on August 6th....I'll be banded 2 weeks when we next meet!!! See you on the other side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doddie63 6 Posted July 22, 2008 Correction: No TLBC Fill Nurse for BC TLBC fill nurse visiting BC next month will NOT DO FILLS FOR ANYONE NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE TLBC. There was a misunderstanding on the post that indicated for a fee she would do fills. However, the intent was for the Lions Gate Support Group no one else thinking we were all TLBC patients. __________________ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinnieboomba 0 Posted August 5, 2008 Sharon you have posted this on August/05/08 yet you are referring to a visit in may of 09 by the nurse. Can this be true? Vanman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinnieboomba 0 Posted August 5, 2008 Never mind sharon I see your point. Yes they still are meeting a Lionsgate hosp. on a regular basis. I just haven't gone,myself. Perhaps send a message directly to Patricia. They met last on July 17th in conference room C at LGHospital.:thumbup: Vanman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
