Hi everyone,

I need your help!
I was banded 2006 lost 70 lbs it off for 1+ year then had a major stuck on dry chicken.   My doctor in SC wouldn't refill me right away and only did a little at a time.  I started gaining in between visits and then noticed that the fills didn't last.  I have regained 35lbs.  At that time, they did flouro and said they couldn't find a leak.

Last year we moved to Florida and I called around and couldn't find a doctor for just fills.  So, I used Fill Center USA in St. Pete.  Great experience.  Problem is the fill only lasted 1 week.  I went from almost having to go back for an unfill to eating almost normal.

So, I know I have a leak unless there is another expaination.  I want to go to a recommended doctor that you guys may know.  And hope they will see me.

Thanking you in advance for your input!

You will most likely get more responses on the Fla state forum than here.

my Dr does Tampa, Lakeland- that may not be too far. Dr Wilfred Aguila 813-877-6000- I picked him cause he did not require all thse up front fees, was close to my job and is very thorough. I am still working on getting done, but I sure hear something soon- good luck

I had mine done by Dr Jawad, he has an office in metro west. I don't know if he does fills only. Here is the website

 Hey!
Recently relocated myself and found a great doc in the Viera/melbourne area.. Name is Dr. Diego
Velarde.  He took me on as a new relocated pt and he is a REALLY nice MD.  Takes his time in the office with you, explains everything.. Just one of the few rare ones..
Hope this helps!

I would HIGHLY recommend the program at USF Health through Tampa General Hospital and Dr. Murr
