Hi! I was banded on June 4th in Mexico with Dr. Ortiz. Anyone else out there banded by him? I am having trouble finding a doctor here in Arkansas to do my fills. Does anyone have any suggestions? I live in Arkadlphia, anyone close?

Not me I am in Washington State. Just wanted to welcome you to the boards. I am sure there is someone out there that will be able to help you. Best of luck to you and welcome.

Karen,

I was banded by Dr. Ortiz on Jan.3. There is a doctor in Baton Rouge, Louisiana that will do fills for $300. The only problem is they only do them once a month. They rent a machine to have them done under fluroscope. YOu may find them under fills. If you have any questions just email me.

Hi Karen..I found this info on this siteunder Arkansas I I pasted it here for you..

I have been told that

Dr. Campbell in Hot Springs, Arkansas will do them on the Inamed bands only . So, if you're going to Mexico to get the surgery done, and don't plan on going back there for fills, make sure you get an inamed band.
