I thought I'd pass this along for anyone it might help.

I was checking out Forest Park Medical Center because of an upcoming sinus surgery and got side tracked because of the bariatric surgery stuff on their site. Anyway, they offer band fills for $50.00. You can have surgery by any doctor and still use their services. All you have to do is make an appointment. They have several locations.

I had my first fill ever there this past Saturday. It took me a month to get in, but it was so worth it. $50, as a self pay without insurance. Didnt get mine done there originally. They did it with flouroscope and were amazing! Checked my level with barium before unhooking me. No hidden charges, very informative and interested in what my goals were and what I had been doing and eating prior to gauge what my fill level should be. I got the feeling they really were I was so nervous before hand because I hate needles, but they were really great. Being a self pay who financed, the thought of having to pay 150-200 in addition to my monthly payments was kinda overwhelming. I definately would recommend them. I had to call a scheduling service at 1-855-BANDFIL. Calling for my six week follow up appt next week so I can be sure to get back in.

Glad it worked out for you chicasmom and glad you have low cost, high quality care at FP.

Thank you! So far so good
