Hi Sweetbean, My husband Dane had his surgery in Mexico, We drive to Michigan for his fill doc and it's about 4hr drive there and back about 8hrs round trip. We have had nothing but good experience with his fill doc. If you would like more info I would gladly give you more please email me at azleester@gmail.com Thanks. Look forward to hear from you.

Abrouill I was told by Fill usa centers you have to be either a NP or a MD to do the training for fills. You have to be able to write prescriptions. I was looking it to it for someone else and that is what they told me for the required training they do. I hope this helps Azleester

Is Dr Pleatmen in Michigan? Will he take people who live in Ohio as we can't find a fill dr here. Is he expensive? Let me know. The ones I found here charge way too much or now not accepting patients. I'd like his phone number and all. Please give me the run down as we would like to get a dr just incase and it's much closer than the OCC is for us. Leave me a message in my box. Azleester

Dr.Curry Stopped taking patients from out of country for fills. I have called his office and they are refusing to do fills on patients that are banded else where. They said due to volume of there patients also of there patients needs. Azleester

I like reboks shoes as I have a hrd time myself fitting into shoes too. I usually get reboks. They have a deeper fit and my feet stay in my shoes.

hi Skinny I'm in Ohio but going to fly back for the 1st fill in TJ Mexico. Then after that driving to a Fill Usa center in michigan which is close to us. You would have to call the OCC and ask them what there price is as the price is a confedenital privacy. I will tell you there pricing is very good and afforable or else we would not have gone that far at all. Carolyn Dane(husband) banded by Dr.Martinez at the Obesity control center- 12/30/2008

Hi My husband is taking the Centrum Silver as they have lots of vits and other stuff in them too. They are the chewable ones in flavor of Cirtrus.

Hi SKinny Yes Mexico is very safe. We just had my husbands surgery there in Tijuana, Mexico on 12/30/2008 and It was very clean and safe. The hotel was very nice. We had a good time. We never had any problems since being home. We are going back to Tijuana, Mexico for his 1st fill in 7 wks. He can't wait to go back and neither can I. The Obeseity Control Center is OCC. We had Dr.Martinez do his surgery. Dr.Ortiz is the other surgeon that does them there too. For his 2nd and many more fills we are going to USA Fill center. I hope this can answer some questions. If anymore questions I will be happy to answer more for you. Danester
