Hi all, I am new here and had my lap band done in Mexicali, Mexico. I live in Houston and went to Dr. Alanis for a fill and he wouldn't do it because he could not feel my port and NO LONGER uses flouro. I need to find another doctor in Houston. If you know anyone, could you please send me the information. Thanks a bunch! Tina

I just wanted to post that I had a fill with Dr. Stephanie Eijsink in College Station as the Austin fill center has been down for awhile,(dr on maternity) and Dr. Garwood moved to Lufkin. She was wonderful. She travels to Bryan/College Station and somewhere in Ft Worth also and I believe only does Saturday appointments. It was 200.00 with fluro and she and her husband and nutritionalist who were there were great!

My name is Dr. Gerald Garwood. I have been located in College Station, Texas but have moved to Lufkin, Texas over the past few years and I just wanted to let all former and future patients know that I am still doing lap band fills, mostly in Lufkin, Texas. If you are interested or have any questions on pricing or anything in general my personal cell phone number is (979)575-7740 or you can give me a call at Urgent Doc in Lufkin where I work as a urgent care provider (936) 634-3627.

Also you can check out my website for basic information http://www.ggarwoodmd.com/contact.html

To schedule fill/appointment please call (979)575-7740 to speak directly to me.

Thank you

Also I do foreign fills, I know some Drs. are not comfortable doing fills on bands that were put on in Mexico and other foreign countries but I will do these fills to save you a trip back to Mexico or wherever you had it done.

I need to find a Doctor in the Houston/Sugar Land area who does fills with fluoroscope. My insurance doesn't pay for bariatric and I had my lapband put in back in 2007.

Help!!
