AK-Sam

I think being in Alaska and working on being banded might be hard. Is it just me or is there lack of people from alaska here. Although Yipee I got first Alaska post



Anyhows nice to be here and I have tons of question and have been answered many many times before I am sure But not for me at least yet.

Thanx,
Sam:D

Hi, Sam....I have met other AK banded, but you are the first here! One went to Mexico, but I think you can get pretty experienced Lap Band surgeons in Washington state these days. And there are excellent follow-up people in Washington, as well.

Hi there.

I'm from AK, although I'm living in IL.

I haven't been banded. I'm talking to DR. to get qualified.

Just wanted to talk to some fellow Alaskans.

I believe Vickums is also from Alaska. She's just posted on some other threads today.

Hello there fellow alaskans, I am scheduled for next month and I already have a fill scheduled with Dr. Jones in Anchorage. Come on there has to be more people in AK, maybe they are just shy? All the best...

Hello there. I'm here in AK as well. My surgery is scheduled for 08/06/08. I'm going to Dr. Kirshenbaum in Aurora, CO. I will travel back
to CO for my first fill, then I will need to find a Dr. in AK to do my future
fills. Any suggestions? There is no one here in Fbks that I've been able
to find. Thanks.
