faith1971 Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hi, Im new to the boards. I was wondering if anyone could help me by giving me some information. I was banded in Mexico, but it is just not possible for me to return at this time. No vacations are possible at the hospital where I work, at his time due to just about all of my co-workers being on sick leave. Can anybody share info about doctors that do fills for patients banded in Mexico. All information is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anybody share info about doctors that do fills for patients banded in Mexico. All information is appreciated. There has been several of us in Illinois and Iowa that have used a great Doctor named Dr. Joseph Vitello. He's a bariatric surgeon at the University of Illinois hospital but does fills on the side at a Downers Grove hospital. He charges $150 cash up front and the hospital charges $129 for the Fluoro. The hospital is a couple blocks off I88, Highland exit. You can reach him at his email address, jvituic@comcast.net, He only does fills for patients that have had their lapband surgery done outside the United States. He does a great job, I highly recommend him. He's a nice guy too! I know that its tough to get back out to San Diego. With airfare high right now and people that have a time restriction, this is the guy to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
