Does anyone know of a fill doctor in Southern California who will see patients who were banded in Mexico. I have heard of Dr. Billy in Van Nuys, but I do not know how to get a hold of him.... I am also not sure if he will see patients who have been banded in Mexico. The problem is Dr. Billy is just as far from me as Dr. Huacuz in Tijuana. Now I know why everyone mentioned that we should set this up, prior to surgery. however I always thought I would go back to Dr. Huacuz in TJ for my fills, but I have read so many posts with people talking about over fills, it would be nice to have someone close by. Please help!

Dr. Billy is wonderful! He just did my first fill after he preformed my surgury in February. One shot and he was done.

One thing that I like about Dr. Billy is he isn't afraid of people that have been banded in Mexico where as alot of docs don't like to fill people that they didn't operate on. I have heard nothing but good things about him. My husband and I just love him and his staff!! They are a great team to have in your corner.

If you do chose to go with him be forwarned he is very blunt about diet which can be good or bad depending on how you look at it. He explains everything in very laymens terms BUT doesn't beat around the bush either!

Good luck! Let me know if you need any more info!
