Ok I went to Mexico for lapband all is well and my doctor was going to do the fills but is heading to Africa and will be gone 6 weeks and my friend and I need our first fill in 2 weeks and he leaves in 1 so I need a doctor in BC who will do a fill and we are up north in Smithers BC so whereever we go will be a long drive. I am desperate please help

Thank-you muchly!!:thumbup:

You would be a lot more successful if you can ask your doctor (the one leaving town) to refer you to another doctor while he is away. Did you ask him if he could do that?

Unfortunately, a lot of doctors won't provide fills for those that went to Mexico. As a nurse, I find this to be sour grapes since they will take your case if you have any other condition and were treated elsewhere and either moved or switched doctors. But, you are at their mercy. Good luck! I hope someone here can help you if your doctor can't do a referral.

Try going to "Northwest Fill Management" located in Arlington,Washington State. Approx. 50 mines north of Seattle.
