Fill Centers USA has an office in Houston. Fill Centers USA does fills for anybody, that's all they do.

My surgeon is part of a group called True Results and they have an office in Houston. You could call them. Look them up at www.trueresults.com. I would think a reputable surgeon's practice would pick you up as a patient since you have moved from overseas. Not like you went to Mexico to save money.

Many surgeons don't want to take on another surgeon's patient...regardless of the reason. It can be like inheriting someone's mess.

However that doesn't mean you can't find a good doc and Parrothead gave you some good leads. :thumbup:

I live in Houston and is suppose to have a fill done with Dr. Stephanie Eijsink on Saturday, 7/4/09. Do you live in Houston maybe we can meet and possibly carpool she charges 200.00 and she do all her fills under fluro.

omg really!! I called her number and her assistant told me that she's goin to college station.. and i had to leave to houston cuz my parents are comin... so is she really comin this weekend to houston???!?!

She's going to be in Tyler, Texas this weekend, I live in Houston and is going to Tyler on Saturday. She want be back in College Station until August 8, and I can't wait that long it will be time for another fill by then.

Try the Davis Clinic in Houston. It's now located on the West side Houston. The doctors were on the show Big Medicine on Discovery Health channel so you can check them out. I got my band done in Shreveport, LA and the Davis Clinic took me on only a few months after my surgery. Let me know if you need any additional information! (Plus, they're sooooo nice!)

Thanks, but I'm going to Stephanie Eijsink tomorrow, instead of Saturday. I've heard nothing but excellent things about how she makes sure your fill is tight since she uses the fluro.

I'm new here. I had my surgery in Mexico with Dr Rumbaut. I tried to contact Dr. Stephanie Eijsink but I guess I have an old phone number. Can somebody give me her phone number please? I need a fill ASAP. Thank you!!:rolleyes:

Call Kathy at 903-520-8847 and she will make your appt. You will be happy, she is very nice and uses the fluro to see what is going on. Good Luck!:)
