Moving to Alaska...

My husband got orders to Elmendorf. I was wondering if anyone could offer me some information. I had Lap-Band surgery done in Feb. I was hoping there might be someone in Alaska...with the AGB, that could recommend a Doctor there for me for any needs that might arise. Any information would be helpful... Thanks... Caryn Word

Lucky dog!!! I'm jealous! I don't know any particulars except that there is a bariatric center in Anchorage, right near where your going to be. [Alaska Bariatric Center in Anchorage]. Hopefully someone will respond, if not, I can get information from my sister that lives in Anchorage! Kim banded 10.20.03 384/257/180 www.kimswlsjourney.com

Caryn, Yes, there are some doctors in Anchorage who would be what you are looking for. Dr. Michael Todd and Dr. Grant Searles. They are located in the Alaska Regional Hospital building. They do the lap band surgery and can help you on your journey. They also have a lot of support groups in Anchorage. You will be well taken care of ! Hope you enjoy Alaska. I live in Soldotna. I just had the RNY surgery on May 21. The doctors are great there. You will have everything you need ! Christy
