Fill Options in Denver, CO



Recommended Posts

I got my surgery in Austin and am now back in CO full time and need to get a fill. I checked out the fill center near me in Thorton and they want a ridiculous amount of money... $349 for the first fill and $165 after that. I have been filled 3 times already and I hate to pay $349 for 1/2-1 cc!! Does anyone have any other options or good doctors that will take over care in the Denver area?

ps... I haven't posted in months and with the format change here I can't figure out how to edit my signature... :)

Hi! You are so lucky to be in Denver. :blush: I just may have the perfect doc for you. :) Dr.Kirshenbaum placed my band about 2 mths ago and I would highly recommend him. He is located in Aurora which is about 20 miles from Thornton. I used to live in Westminster and it was about a 40 min. drive. Dr.K only charges his pts. $15 for a fill. With that being said, I have no idea if its the same for non-pts. I am currently in the same boat as you, I need a fill but do not want to pay $200. You can PM for Dr.K's info if you are interested or go to lapbandrockies.com which will also have the info. Natalie is the bariatric coordinator and her email is ncardenas@lapbandrockies.com. She will be able to give you some answers. Best of luck!:)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
