We just found out that we got orders to Malmstrom AFB in Great Falls, MT:biggrin2:
My question is: Are there any reputable bariatric surgeons that do the lap band there? We are moving this summer, so I wanted to do a search and see if anyone here can recommend someone? Thanks so much for any help you can give!

Hi! I live in Missoula,MT and I'm not sure about any bariatric surgeons in Great Falls. I do know there were several people from the Great Falls area at the support group meeting here. I have not had my surgery yet but have heard many great things about the two bariatric surgeons here.

I live in Eastern MT but a lady who was banded in Colorado here goes and gets her fills in Great falls. If you go to the Montana forum, you can get his name. She loves him. Says he is great I guess.
The MT forum is under local support forums.

Well, my husband is in the military and tricare just started to cover lap band and I'm waiting till we get up there to get the referral. So I guess I'll have to find out which dr.s if any will accept tricare. I really hope this works out. Thanks for all the information!

Welcome to Great Falls. I think you will find all 3 doctors are very good. I've had to friends to to Dr. Rohrer and they were very happy. I think you can go to Tricare online and find out if any of the 3 doctors are a provider. That may help you prepare and bring you one step closer to your surgery. Good Luck!
