HI SELINA,
U DO HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW HOW MUCH IS IN YOUR BAND, MOST DRS GIVE U A CARD WHICH TELL U HOW MUCH IS IN AND HOW MUCH THEY ADD OR SUBTRACT EACH TIME, JEN IS LOVELY, ANOTHER DR WHO FILLS FOR MY SURGEON DOUGLAS NICHOLSON SUNNYBANK AND DR IAN MARTIN @WESLEY, IS DR CHARLIE ELLIOT HE IS LOVELY AS WELL, SO DEPENDING ON WHERE U LIVE U CAN MAKE A CHOICE
IF U R CLOSER TO SUNNYBANK THE PH NO.IS 33456667. JEN DUNCOME WORKS FROM THERE TOO.
ALL THE BEST

Selina,
Here's some info copied from one of Doreen's earlier posts.
....................... {Dr Blair Bowden does bands ,as many others do but ,fills are the only thing you should need
I would suggest cost wise try
Dr Jen Duncombe does fills ,
for Dr Duncombe ,cost with medicare is ...usually.......$10 out of pocket ... for Dr Duncombe
she does several locations
(auchenflower ....33719521....tuesdays
stafford....not sure of the number but auchenflower will give it to you,
and logan ....38060077...monthly... on a thursday next time is 30/7/09
as well as several others area's
(ask stafford when you get their no as its her base ) any other detail s as she travels around ,the state also,)
she is available by mobile phone in an emergency ,(always handy )
Dr Duncombe works with many surgeons doing fills ,}
Also you should pop into one of our support groups at Milton.They are always so much fun and always good to vent if you need to.
The next one is on 23rd August at 12 noon but a few of us will be there from 11am.
Hope this helps,
TARA |

I hope someone can help me here re. problems I am having the the doc. who does my fills.
I was banded in Feb. and have finally got to the stage where I think/feel that the band is about right. It has been a long haul, but I have had no blockages/throwing-up so I am happy with the slow and sure road and I am slowly losing weight.
HOWEVER.... the doc. who does my fills refuses to tell me how much I have in my band - even when I asked outright, saying that I had the right to know. He just refuses.... I'm not comfortable with this nor with our relationship since this little show down. There have also been a few minor things that I would be willing to ignore if they had been the only 'issues'.
Is this normal? not to be told how much fluid is in the band? I feel like a bit of a dill, not knowing.
Also, does anyone in Brisbane have someone they go to for fills who they are happy with?
All replies appreciated |
