Hi - He is my new doctor and I have my first fill appointment with him on 3/14. I had my surgery done 8/07 in AZ and moved here to Chicago in October. I have been seeing Dr Vafa Shayani - until I found out he was not covered on my insurance plan. I am sad to have to see another new doctor - so I hope dr Denham will be good. Let me know how your appointment went!

I have heard Dr. Denham is the best around. I am currently going through the approval process. My suregon is going to be Dr. Watson out of Condell. What insurance do you have?

Hey Flower!
YES! Dr. Denhan is the best, just had my two week post op today, went well. I have Tricare Standard, hubby is military. Where do you live? A couple of bandsters who live locally get together often, Round Lake Lake Villa area. We'd love to have you join us! We all met at a monthly Lap Band support group meeting at Vista Health Center In Lindenhurst. If you are interested, I can give you the info....do you have a surgery date yet?

Hello Timetobandme,

No I am still waiting for the office to send in my paperwork. They said they had a few emergency surgeries and would look it over in a couple of days. Well that was Wednesday. So I just sit here and wait. I am tired of waiting though. I am still going for weekly weigh-in's just in case Aetna wants a six month diet instead of a three like the say. I live in Lake Bluff. I would love to join the group.
