Question:
Are there any Dr.'s in Canada who do the Fobi Pouch?

I have had a vertical banded gastroplasty done in 1985 and reversed in 1994 due to severe reflux problems. I have gained 150lbs and feel the only solution to my problem would be the fobi pouch..    — Moira B. (posted on April 4, 1999)

You should check out Dr. Coloquen I think if you look up Karen Fehr she can give you the number-e-mail her. It is not the Fobi pouch but it may be better than that for you. Good luck Allison

Moira The Bilopancreatic Diversion with Duodenal Switch is a viable option. My bariatric Surgeon in Saskatoon, Sask. does this surgery. He has several VBG revisions under his belt and he prefers this procedure. Also, he does this as his preferred First Surgery Too. his name is Dr. Brian Colquhoun, Saskatoon, Sask. There is also a support group of Canadians on line at << [email protected] >>. A duodenal switch support group at << [email protected] >> And of course the MAIN LIST << [email protected] >> Ossg stands for Obesity Surgery Support Group. Originally started by Olwen Hope this can help you in your search. karen
