Need a fill doctor in Florida

I had a fill doctor, Dr Jesse who recently increased her fills from $200 to $400. This will be my second fill w/o fluro. Has anyone found a reasonable fill doctor for the "Mexican" band in Florida??? Could you also share the cost? This seems to be the most challenging part of being banded!!!!

DR LARSON _ LAKE WORTH $285 per fill

I recently went to Dr. Larson in Lake Worth. He takes patients banded in Mexico but does require a surgery report.

Numbed the area first before the fill, didn't fill too tight. Very nice office and staff. I would recommend him it was a good experience. :thumbdown:

Has anyone had a fill with the the new Fill Center Location in Deland FL? I was told there is no fluro. Just curious if anyone has used this provider? I have been using the ST. Pete location, but it's 2h 45m away. The Deland location is like 15 min!

I live in Tampa and I'm having my LAP-BAND® surgery Nov 27. I have been checking out the cost of fills locally and it appears its cheaper to fly back to San Diego (Tijuana) and get my free fills from Dr Gonzalez, then to pay all these program fees and additional fill costs.

I ended up going to Dr Murr at Tampa General. They are wonderful Drs. and nurses, the procedure doesn't hurt and best of all, all it costs is my Insurance co-payment!!:thumbup:

my fill doctor is Kathy Gonzales. she is very nice to you while she is going the fill. she is located in 5088 66th St North~ St. Petersburg, FL.

she does fills and unfills.

Yeah another Dr. Murr patient.. I also live in Tampa, and I only pay my co-pay for fills which is $40.00. Dr. Murr did my surgery and his staff is great. I actually get numb for my fills it's a little uncomfortable at times because where my port is located, but I survive.

He's at the USF Center at Tampa General Hospital. Hope everything works out for you.
