I have an adjustable gastric band - In the UK I used to see a clinical nurse for

 adjustments. Can any one help me find a qualified clinician in Almeria Province please. Or advice how to find a Doctor who specialises in Adjustments. I’m not in the state health care system . Looking for a private clinic.

Thank you for your reply. I have tried Googling Gastric band adjustment clinic and all different  ways to search for a medical Clinician, with no contacts. Do you know that these 2 clinics are special centres?

Ok thank you Lyn. Have tried everything I can think of the private clinics are not help ful unless they refer you for a emergency, or to a hospital specialist for further tests operation. Will keep trying.

Have you tried Hospital Virgen del Mar 8n Almería.  Private hospital.  I don't think you need a referral.  You can call them direct. They have English translators. Good luck!

From experience, it is a very good hospital although I don't know if they cover your specialist requirements.  If not, they may be able to advise you about someone who can.

Good luck!
