I've been working with TLC-Edge to get my surgery -- however my doctor has also offered to do my fills.

Doctor is more convenient -- but TLC-Edge brought me this far?

So what do I do?

I'm thinking of keeping the doctor in mind for backups. TLCEdge has been very good to me.

I would stick with the specialists in wls, although your doctor could probably do it if he did not have the correct training he could also puncture your port line and then you would have to have another surgery.

He does run his own Weight Loss Center

If you have good rapport with your doctor and they are willing to manage your aftercare and advise you if you have issues, then it seems reasonable to go to your doc. Especially if it is less hassle to go to him and/or cheaper. Make sure he has Allergan/ Johnson & Johnson fill guidelines, so they are not too aggressive, or not aggressive enough.

Fills are pretty straightforward. I went to a local walk-in urgent care to have an emergency unfill done because my doc was out of town. I'd called ahead and talked to the doctor and she'd dealt with Mediports all of the time and I had complete faith in her. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again if I needed to.

My follow-up doc keeps my records and will always give me the 'fill juice' when I need it because my perspective is this: eventually my band is going to go south and I am going to need him to help me with some sort of revision/etc. I need him on my side. So, I'll pay the price so he can be my advocate in the ER.

Its your call. I do not think you should stick with a group of doctors just because they did your surgery if there are more convenient options for you.
