katieo 0 Posted September 21, 2008 Hi everyone! flirtylass, your weightloss results so far are amazing!! I have been a member of this forum for a couple of years and I am finally ready to begin this life changing experience. Now I need to choose my surgeon and I quite like the sound of Dr Bruyne, just searched him on google and found out quite abit of info,the only thing i couldn't find was his contact details! That might just me being daft though LOL Would anyone be so kind as to tell me how I can contact this surgeons office? Also, is his waiting list long? If I have to wait a long time then I may aswell try for the NHS, long waiting lists is the reason I have decided to go private. Would be sooooo greatful for your help Katie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
