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:

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:

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
