Did you get your surgery done? Mine is going to be in 4-5 weeks. Where are you located, I in Gig Harbor. Ive heard nothing but good things about him and staff!

I am curious on how your surgery went with Dr. Chang. I just saw her a few weeks ago. I am checking off all the requirements  needed by my insurance.

Topic: RE: Insurance approved! Now, to pick a surgery center? Thoughts?

So, I haven't signed in in forever! Almost a year out of my surgery... I went with PSSC (Now Eviva) with Dr. Landerholm. I'm down 200lbs., so I'm pretty happy with my decision!

Topic: Vancouver support groups?

Do these exist, or do people just go to PDX?  I'm new to the area (ish) and had VSG in 2012, so I wouldn't be affiliated with a surgeon or hospital here but would like to find a support group.

Thanks for any help!

Topic: Dr. Haroon Anwar at St Francis Hospital Federal Way, WA

Hello!  There hasn't been much activity on this form lately, but I was wondering if anyone has used Dr. Haroon Anwar at St Francis Hospital in Federal Way?  I have my first appointment with him on January 14, 2016!

Hey--I'm in ML, too. As far as I know (could be wrong) there aren't actually any surgery options in Moses. Tri-Cities, Spokane, and Seattle are your options.

They used to let you do Lap-Band fills here in town but I'm not sure if they do anymore--I think the intro classes were for that as well.

Rockwood has a solid program though and they're great to work with. Only 90 minutes away, right in the Deaconess health center off I-90.

I don't know of any support groups though--maybe Weigh****chers has something? I know there's one at Rockwood although I've never been. The forums here are a good bet.

If you would like to talk to someone in person just let me know--my wife had VSG two years ago and I go in for VSG in a week, so we're familiar with the process.

Good luck!
