I have had a few negative experiences with fills here in BC and in Northern Washington. My tried and true advice is to just go to TJ. It is worth it. They really are the experts and can provide you with expert care. If you would like more details let me know. I have made my family promise me that they will not let me get filled or unfilled anywhere but the OCC again. lol. My husband is a little afraid because in the past I have made him promise not to let me eat icecream and that didn't work out well for him!!

I have been very happy with Dr. Manchanda myself. The last time I needed an unfill, it was the fill I got from the OCC! Guess it's a gamble anywhere- the band seems to have a mind of it's own!

Thats true it does have a mind of it's own. If you don't mind me asking, why did you get 2 complete unfills? I just got one because of a stretched pouch.

Because I couldn't even swallow water without it coming up and slight unfills were not doing th trick...OCC said it was best when you are that swollen to just give it a rest and take it all out for a few weeks so the swelling will go down.

That makes sense. My friend is going thro through that and they (her clinic) just gave her ant acid and left her filled. (After travelling from Canada to Mexico). She is still not keeping things down. I wish she would try the OCC. There is a 450 first fill charge then it is the reg price after that and she didn't want to pay that. She had hers done at the hospital at TJ.
