Out of country/state bandings....

For those that have gone out of state or country for your bandings, how do you go about finding a Dr. for fills? Can you only get fills through the LapBand Dr's or clinics? Or are there other avenues you can go through?

well from what I have read is where ever u are banded should cover your fills for the first year or so... but when u are banded and go somewhere else. U will prob. have to pay out of pocket for your fill @ the Apt.

This is a very good question that I hope many get the answer to before deciding to go out of the country. I've read too many times that the doctors won't touch people who have had the surgery done elsewhere.
