Yay!!! Good luck with everything

 

[Lincs Lass]

Fantastic!!

I was also done as an NHS patient at a private hospital. They only do this if they are as certain as they can be that there will be no problems and you're considered low risk x

Congrats Lucylee - where are you having the surgery?

 

[lucylee]

Hey Natashoorrr im having it done a chelsfield in kent i cant wait :-D have you had yours done? If so what op did you have? X

 

[rubyred15]

Hi, Lucylee,,,,oops, sorry I think I've posted in the wrong place,,,,,,,not too clever with where and when's,,,,,appologies. Ruby x

 

[janeybec]

Lucylee had my band fitted there, staff are so attentive and caring. Mr el hasani is very direct and to the point which I liked. Good luck

 

[lucylee]

Thats ok rubyred15 im just getting the hang of it aswell.

 

[lucylee]

Janeybec yea the staff are lovely at chelsfield and i think its nicer that you get your own room and bathroom aswell. Yea quite a few people have said to me that dr hasani is abit sharp but as someone else said he isnt there to sit and have lunch with he is there to do your op lol

 

[janeybec]

Yep couldn't have said it better myself, I liked the fact he was sharp...kinda reassured me that he was the expert! x

 

[lucylee]

Apparently he is one of the best in the country which has reassured me alot

 

[lucylee]

How long have you had your band done now?
