Anyone knows about Dr Pierre Leclerc...



Recommended Posts

This is my first post, looking somewhere in the internet I found that having the lap band surgery done by Dr Pierre Leclerc at the Chum hospital in Montreal could take approximately 6 months...

I am trying to find the website for Dr Pierre Leclerc, any information I would be glad to receive, how much it cost etc etc

Thanks you all for the information

Hello Diane! I am a patient of Dr. Leclerc. My operation is scheduled for june 12 2009. My first appointment with Dr.Leclerc was Feb 3rd 2009. At that time, he had asked me to lose around 10 pounds as a show of motivation and readines for the lapband. Until last week the cost of the operation through the public system was payment for the band only (5000$). This said, I need to call and confirm today because I heard last week that gov t was now covering cost of the band as well!!! Great news for me because it was not covered by my insurance benefits i have with my employment. I wish you all the best of luck in this new endeavor!

      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.
