Question:
lap-band adjustment

I need a DR in the Portland, OR - Vancouver, WA area that can adjustment my lap-band for me,(a fill). Dr Fox in Seattle said it was buried too deep and couldnt find it and said I would have to go to a the hospital there at a cost of $800, but he doesnt even take a x-ray to see if he can find it like other Drs do. Can anyone help me? Ann    — Ann C. (posted on September 11, 2001)

Hi! I was thinking that you might call my Dr's office, and speak to his office manager, Linda. She is very knowledgable on the lap band, or she can direct you to web sites that can help. The phone # is (504)899-5511. Explain your dilemma. I use the 10-10-811 for my long distance which is $1 for 20 minutes!! Good Luck, and God Bless --
