Hi, I was just banded in Mexico on March 25th and doing well. I had called a doctor in Kansas City before I went to Mexico to see if he would do the fills, and how long it would take to get in, etc. They gave me a time frame of 7-8 weeks. However, when I called today to set up the actual appointment, they are going to make me wait 3 months! Needless to say, I am not happy. That is a very long time to wait for restriction-please, if any of you have a doctor you use or have heard of who will do fills who lives in the Kansas/Mo area, please please email me with the number. I have paid a lot of money for this tool and it is making me crazy to think of waiting 3 months. Thanks again.

It would if you'd post the doctor's name (so you don't get a bunch of replies recommending the same person) but I've heard that Dr. Malley takes on MX patients. I know my surgeon does not, and I've not heard of any other local surgeons who do.

Im in England and had my op on the 12th March. my Doc dosent do the first fill for 12 weeks also, he told me that this is the norm here. I also have to do liquids for 4weeks and mushies for 4weeks before i can start normal foods.
