Thanks for that info!

I was banded in Mexico and I use Fill center USA but it's in VA.BCH. My surgeon in Mexico gave me a list of VA. fill Doctors ahead of time so I had it set up before I had surgery. Good luck!

Thanks, I did find that one, I just wanted to find one closer to home. No big deal if I don't though.

Question - do they use the fluoroscope?

Not the one I use, but if you want a barium shallow she will gladly write you a scrip.

Have you had good luck out of that one? This is the one that I'll most likely be using so it's nice to be able to talk to someone who's been there before! :smile:

Also, do you mind sharing how much they charge? Set up fee and then fills?

I think the set up was around $350 or $385 I can't quite remember and $160.00 a fill and Dr. Harris is great. She is a really nice lady and I never feel a thing. She will also give what you need instead of nursing each fill so you don't have to go as often. I've had 4 fills in 17 months.

I had my band in Charlottesville at martha Jeffeson with Dr. Michael Trahan. He has been great. Dont know tho if he does fills from other places or if he used flouroscopy. Might wanna give them a call.
