arizona doctor willing to do fills for mexican band patients.



Recommended Posts

I always like to tell everyone about a Company called Fill Centers USA..they accept aptients not banded in the USA. . They have fill docs all over the USA. I go to one in my town and it is much better than when I was traveling back to Dr Ortiz. (although I love him!) You can read very positive things about all of their providers. You might give them a call to see if they haveo one in your area. Good luck

Are any of you still going to Mexico for fills, to Aceves specifically? If so, do ya'll pass through Yuma? I'd love to go.

I am in need of a fill but it's been so long since I've been to see Dr. Aceves and I'm unsure of the passport issues now, I'd love to have a buddy to go with.

Thanks!

In the state of AZ, nurse practitioners are recognized as primary care providers and are not required to practice "under the umbrella of a physician's care".

Randy, such advertisements are not welcome here.

Beyond that, you leave yourself open to some major legal issues if ANYthing were to go wrong... and I mean ANYthing. You could be found responsible for pretty much anything that goes wrong with a person's band because you are not doing it under the umbrella of a physician's care.

There is a NP who lives in Mesa who may be willing to take Tucson patients. He may charge more for the drive. You may want to call him. His name is Randy Hamilton and he is great. He does my fills/unfill's in Phoenix. He drives to my house to do it. 480.363.8654.

OMG YES!!!!!!! There is only a handful right now and the cost is insane. We need someone in the area so bad. He would be the busiest Dr. in PHX I can tell you that. I for sure would use him. Hell I need him now. Please let me know if he decides to do this. I live in Cottonwood and there is nobody up here.

I use Dr. Terry Simpson. He is amazing. Look into using him. Without him, I would not have lost 85 pounds so far!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
