Fills in S.E. U.S.??

I've noticed that there is little communication regarding fills in the U.S. I remember reading one message where someone gave an 800 number to call to find a doctor in your area that did fills. She said that the cost was $150 per fill, with the first one free. I thought I had written that number done, but cannot find it. Does anyone know about this? I'm researching Mexican doctors now and will be ready to go once I get the fill issue resolved. Help!

Choices I'm aware of: 1. Doctor that does your surgery refers you to a stateside doctor for the fills. (My surgeon, Dr Rumbaut does that, but I'm not having a lapband.) 2. Go to the American Society for Bariatric Surgery website and find a surgeon with "foll" after his/her name. It means they are willing to follow up another doctor's patients. The site is: http://www.asbs.org/ and select "find an ASBS member". Good luck. -Pam

Thanks, Pam. Once this is resolved, I'm on my way . . . and, not soon enough!

Jo, That Number is such a rip off. I did it and all the Dr's they gave me in this area were bariatric Dr's you could have gotten from the phone book and NONE of them did Mexican patients. Luckily I paid with a credit card and was able to dispute the charge. Joan

There is a yahoo group called Mexicanbandsters that has a whole file of doctors who do fills for Mexico patients - broken down by state. Laura Dr. Kuri (TJ)
