I was banded in Mexico and would like to know if anyone knows any Doctors in the Atlanta area that will provide fills at a reasonable cost. I've found several Doctors that require upfront money in the range of $1500-$2000 which to me is excessive. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, I think we got our band on the same day. October 21st?? Just thought I'd drop you a note. I don't know of any fill doctors in your area, but I did find one here in Texas that is about 1 hour from where I live for $200 with fluoro...I actually have an appointment set up for the end of this week. I hope everything is going well for you and good luck with finding a fill doctor

EDAZUL - Can you give me the Doctors name and number you found in Texas and do you know if they accept patients who were banded in Mexico?

Hi Dunatl - There are several doctors in Atlanta that work with the lapband. I'm just not sure if they'll give fills to patients banded elsewhere. I see Dr. Duncan at Peachtree Bariatrics. You could always call their office and ask. Good luck!

Hey Dunatl,

I've sent you a message via email, but I forgot to answer your question about whether they accept MEXICO banded patients and the answer is yes.

edazul - Can you share with me the doctors name & number and which city in Texas they are located. Please let me know how your first fill went.

Hey Dunatl,

I'm sorry, I guess I did something wrong since you didn't get the email I sent you, but that information on the fill doctor is the following; Her name is Dr Stephanie Eijsink and she is in College Station . Her address is Scott and White Clinic ,1700 University , College Station, Tx 77840. Her phone number is 979-587-0000 and her email address is seijsink@swmail.sw.org, If you email her she will answer any questions and the great thing is that she has weekend appointments. Hope this helps and I will let you know how it goes this Sunday... Have a great Thanksgiving
