New Spokane Fill Doctor



Recommended Posts

Hi, all. Just to let you know, Dr. Vivian Moise is now doing gastric band adjustments. Had one done last week and she got in the first try! Amazing. I'm in the zone, too--able to eat but not too much.

Now I no longer have to fret about having fills done locally, especially since Tijuana is out for now, and I don't want to take an entire day to go to Olympia, Lewiston or Auburn for a fill.

Thanks for listening, and good luck.:smile:

Hi Malena...

I had lap band surgery with Dr. Kuri in Mexico June 19/09.

I would appreciate more information about Dr. Vivian Moise in Spokane, Wa. who will provide fills for bandsters.

Can you let me know her phone number, address and if she does fluoroscopy. And Cost!

Thanks...

Felicia Eaton

felicia. hi. you can contact dr. moise at 509-747-5242. she charges $250 for the first adjustment and consult. she doesn't do the fluroscopy, but hasn't needed to do that. her office is on the lower south hill at 511 south pine street, suite d. this is a little street between division and cowley, off of 5th and division.

i had my surgery with Dr. Ortiz at the end of last august. so far i've lost about 50 lbs. it is hard and quite an adjustment . . . let me know if there is anything i can do to support you. i have a couple of lapband friends, and it helps to talk about stuff--even the gross stuff. you know what i mean!

best,

ma'lena

      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.
