HELP ! ! ! Fill doctor needed in MI



Recommended Posts

I was banded in Mexico and was planning to get my fill locally at Barix Clinic in Ypsilanti by Dr. Kam. I called this morning to make an appointment for my first fill and was informed Dr. Kam is leaving Nov.1 and he is taking no new patients since he is booked solid. So I got on the phone and started making phone calls. Must have called at least 8 different places and no one will do a fill for me. Is there anyone out there who knows where I can get a fill without having to go back to Tijuanna????????????????

Hana,

I live in PA as well. What part of PA do you live? I live in York. Anyway, I am looking for a fill dr. for after I get banded in March. How much do Fill Center's USA cost? What was your experience with them?

I live in PA, about 30min south of Harrisburg. Yes I am going outside the US. I chose Dr. Rod in Acuna. Who was your Doc? What was your experience like?

By the way, someone gave me the name of a Doc in Frederick, MD. I don't know how far that is away from you and I haven't met her yet or anything but if you wanna check her out I'll give you her info. I think she was banded as well. Her name is Susan Brinkley. The phone # is 303-668-2800. I think her fills are $200. Again this is all second hand. I have to check it out myself to set up my fills for after surgery. I'm hoping she can do them because this would be the closest option for me.

Please write back and tell me how your experience went...I like get all the perspectives I can.

Oh and Hanna, if you give me your e-mail I can forward you the list of fill Docs that Dr. Rod's office sent me. Maybe one of them would work for you?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
