Central Texas

I am going to get my surgery done in Mexico on June 7th. Does anyone know who will do fills in the Central Texas area. If not, Dallas or Houston area doctors would be helpful too.

Thanks.

Where do you live? Do you have aftercare lined up? I found a dr in Richardson and in Houston who will do filld but I am nervous about any complications.

I live in San Antonio. I have been told that Dr. Rumbaut has an associate now in San Antonio who will do any aftercare.

Yes, I'm a little nervous, too, but I just keep coming to this board and read all the wonderful things that are going to be taking place afterwards. So, while I'm nervous, I'm also excited and waiting to get it over with.

My husband is going with me.

Hi, I'm an Okie but I'm going to Lubbock Texas, Texas Tech Univ. Science Health Center. My Dr is Dr. Eldo Frezza. Has anyone heard of him??

I go to Gerald Garwood in College Station. He is great. He is not a surgeon, But was trained to do fills, and assists Dr Benavides.

hi there...just wanted to let ya'll know to be very careful when selecting aftercare physicians who were not involved in your surgery. i know that dr garwood and dr benavides remind us quite often that it's getting more difficult for pt's who have the surgery in mexico to get quality aftercare because the physicians don't want to get involved with any possible complications that may arise due to "cheap fixes"....just make sure that ya'll find ones who are very reputable...good luck all

I'm not going to mexico. I'm going to Lubbock Texas-Texas Tech Univ. Hospital

I AM FREAKING OUT. Are you?

I am going to Dr. Oritz in Tijuana.

I could really use a fellow Mexico lapband friend today.

Can you tell me which dr in Richardson does this?

I drive to Dallas, Dr. Nirmal Jayasaleen was my surgeon. He does my fills. I am in Waco, where are you?
Hi I am in Waco too. Is there a fill doctor in the Waco area?

I'm in Waco tooooooooo!!!!!!

All the Dr. I have contacted so far will not see me because I was banded in Mexico. So I will be going back to Monterrey in the next couple of weeks. I need a fill real bad, I dont even have restriction in the morning any more. I wish there was a fill Dr. in Waco.

Hi, I am going up to Arlington to have my fills. It is Dr. Dobson. They charge me $150 for a fill and $100 for X-Ray. How much are you guys paying?

How do we support one another, for those of you living in Waco Texas?
