Fill Doctor In Illinois?



Recommended Posts

I'm looking for a doctor who will do fill/unfills on patients who had a lapband put in in another state. Any leads on doctors, locations, and prices would be so very helpful!

Thanks in advance :)

Denise Orrill is a nurse practitioner near Mt. Vernon Il. charges 175.00 for 1st visit, 95.oo for subsequent fills. (very reasonable) here is the number: 1-618-249-6203. it's called Irvington Friendly Care. Irvington Il. Your welcome. I'm going to use her after I follow up with another surgeon right after surgery in aug.

Dr. John Wieland at OSF Weight Management Center Does them. Unfortunately, I don't know about pricing. That's in Bloomington, IL (central). 309-661-5040

Not sure where you are located but Dr. Elli is my doctor. He is in Chicago, UIC but he also works from the 900 Michigan Ave Surgical Center. No clue on pricing.

Dr Elli is also my surgeon. At UIC each fill is $250. I'm not sure if that's the flat rate or if that's based off your insurance. He's awesome.

Does bcbs cover fills with dr elli? Waiting to hear back from the office but i have no patience. My old

Doctor office covered fills I just had to pay my copay. Nurse wanted me to pay 250 for a fill and avoid acknowledging I had insurance...weird!

BCBS covered my fills at Northwestern. Kaitlyn Fiori is the nurse practitioner that normally does the fills. She works for Dr. Nagle (head of gastro dept.).

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
