I go to Dr Stephen Tersigni in Coos Bay, OR. I live in Medford, so it's about a 6 hrs round trip trip to him, but he's well worth it. Medicare would only pay for Centers of Excellence and there's only 2 in OR (at least 3 yrs ago there were). Him and 1 in Eugene. Altho Eugene probably be closer to you, huh?

Good luck!

Thanks for the information I think Eugene is closer but not really sure have to look it up because I am new to the area came from NY by way or Alaska.

I don't know Kelly Fitzgerald personally, but she does fills in Portland and Eugene. Portland is less than an hour from Salem. She has 20 years experience as a nurse and is now a naturopathic doctor. I go to Legacy Weight Management in Portland. There is also Oregon Weight Loss Surgery. Where did you get surgery at?

I had my surgery back in 2008 and lost a lot of weight while In NY. Alaska wasn't so nice to me and the two doctors that they had there And there was only two refused to see me for fills or otherwise because they didn't do my surgery. So I regained a lot while there. We were there for a year . Now we moved back down to the lower 48 and I have to get this back under control

I have heard some Dr's requiring barium swallows before they will take you on, but I am sure you will find someone. There are plenty of clinics in Oregon.

I have no issue with barium swallow all of my fills have been done via fluoroscopy. In fact I would much rather that to just a blind stick because my port in slightly tilted and it is very difficult for people to access. How I miss my Dr Z
