Hi all! I am moving to Prescott Valley for a year while my husband is over seas. Anyways.... are there any recommended Drs in N.AZ? I want to have one in place "in case" I need one. I am about 20 weeks pregnant and have 10cc's in a 14 cc band. So far all is wonderful!! i just need someone if I do need to have a bit taken out and to also check my band after I give birth. I prefer fluoroscopy if possible. Did I mention I love my band :)

I used to see Dr Berger in Flagstaff for my fills when I first got my band. He does fills under fluroscopy. I was self pay... I can look up how much fills were if you need that info. I completely forgot now, it has been over 3 years. I have since found a local surgeon in Tucson who does my aftercare.

It was pretty quick, in and out. They do all the fills on certain days and it was almost assembly line. He was nice, but I didn't feel like a patient... more like a number. It may have changed in the last 3 years.

I think Flagstaff is about 2 hours away from Prescott Valley. So a little bit of a haul. Closer than Tucson though!! Haha. I can't believe I used to drive over 4 hours one way for a freaking fill!! My new doctor is 15 minutes from my house. <3

**edited to add** Not sure why links aren't displaying properly? Here is a link though....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
