I am considering having my lap band done in Mexico. What is holding me back is finding a fill doctor that is close to me. I live in Cincinnati Ohio.

Does anyone know of a fill doctor I can go to? All the doctors around here will not take a patient that did not have the surgery with them:cool2:

I had heard doctor curry did, but I wrote them earlier and they said they wont take on any patients that had their surgery done anywhere else.

What is up with that?

I'm sure there are doctors there who will do fills on outside patients. This is what I did. I did a search on line of all doctors who do bariatric surgery within a 75 mile radius of where I live. I must have found about thirty different ones. I then got on the phone and called them all. I will admit that most said no but I ended up with about five different doctors who would gladly do my fills. I compared distances, and prices and then made my decision. I then came here to the forum and posted the doctors, location and prices here so someone here could benefit from my research. Things have worked out great. You just have to thinbk outside the box,
