Lap Band after care

I had a Lap Band 7 years ago. The Dr that did it doesn't take my Insurance anymore and most important, he lets Medical Assistants do his patients fills.

I need to see a Dr that will take me as a patient. I have never had proper after care. I am now vomiting a lot and it is brown bile. Very bitter.

Does anyone know of a Dr in the Dallas area that will take me as a patient? I have Aetna PPO Insurance.

thanks,

Monica

You could try Dr. Victor Gonzalez in Dallas. He is very thorough and professional. His number is 972-566-7180.

Dr. Louis Fox is my doc and he is great. I havent had a fill yet, but he has an aftercare program and uses all kinds of factors to decide if you need a fill.
