pandagirl 0 Posted May 21, 2008 Hi, I know there are a couple of Sacramento threads going on, but I was wondering if there were those who had thier band done by Dr. Laura Machado or who are planning to go through her? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
setagirl 0 Posted June 8, 2008 Hi... I was banded by Dr. Machado a year ago. Do you guys ever get together as a group? Or meet once in awhile for dinner? Exercise together? I think I would like to do that. Is anyone interested at all?:incazzato: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lsanderson 0 Posted August 4, 2008 Hello! I am planning on going through Dr. Machado. I have my insurance approval and go on Monday the 11th to her new patient seminar. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smilin_apple 0 Posted February 11, 2011 The BAND-ONLY support group in Sacramento meets next Saturday, Feb. 19th, 2011! ALL LapBanders are welcome! Even if you are pre-surgery!!! Sacramento Valley Bandsters Support Group third Saturday of every month from 10:30-12:30. Sutter Cancer Center Classroom 1, First Floor 2800 L Street, Sacramento Easy parking is available one short block away in covered lot on 29th Street, between K and L streets. This costs $1 per hour. There is also street parking on the blocks surrounding the area that use a meter to park. I think its approx. 25-cents per 15 min. increment of time.
