Please help need fill in michigan for slimband from Tornoto, having trouble getting fills in Canada even if I pay for it.

I never heard of Slimband but you might want to try the lap band center at Port Huron Hospital. Dr. Bhesania has been doing lapband since about 2003 and was actually born and raised in Toronto. It can't hurt to ask.

Have you called Slimband? I just got my slimband on July 28th but my understanding is that if you find a doctor willing to be trained they will train that doctor on how to do a fill for you.

The other alternative might be to go to Windsor? Then it should be covered by Slimband and you shouldn't have to pay, right? Not sure where you are in Michigan.

Hope you find a solution!!

Yes I have and its not covered which isn't the problem, the fill center in widnsor will not give me a fill without slimbnad calling them to give them a fill amount 1 cc or so on and slimband won't call them as I have no support, however, I have had this same fill center give me 2 fills so far, I called them directly and I can pay which isn't a problem either but without th e call from slimband to give them the cc amount they won't do it.

But thanks for your help.

How frustrating!! I'm sorry I wasn't able to help but I sure hope you find some answers soon!!
