Hello. I was just wondering if anyone knows of a fill doctor in the Southern California Area, that might be willing to take on a lapband patient who was banded in Mexico. I have spoken with someone from Dr. Oliak's office in Orange who said they would be willing to see me, but I wanted to explore all of my options. Also has anyone used Dr. Oliak???? I have been banded for two weeks and definately think I will be ready for a fill at four weeks! Thanks

Dr. Helmuth BIlly in Ventura, CA will take Mexico patients. He is/was my band doctor. He removed my band due to erosion. I go see him for support now. He is wonderful.

Dr. Oliak is my LapBand Surgeon. He is awesome. I wouldnt see any of the other doctors in his old group, though (I believe this is why he seperated from them).

Also, I've heard praise about Dr. Leport
