Need fill in Minneapolis area

[SandraMinnesota]

I live in a north suburb of Minneapolis. Can anyone advise of a fill doctor in the Minneapolis area? I was hoping to go to one closer than New Prague, which is an official fill center clinic, partly because it seems quite expensive, and is quite a drive. Sandra in Minnesota

Hi I'm from SE MN close to Rochester. I had the same question, is New Prague the only place?? I hope there are some other bandsters who know!

Do you have your band already?

[SandraMinnesota]

No band yet--not until Jan 12th. But I am doing my research. Do you have yours yet? Sandra

I am scheduled for the 10/24,,, I"m excited BUT freaking out a little! I am also worried about New Prague not have Flouro- and I don't think I can afford to go to Mexico everytime.

Do you mean New Prague doesn't have fluoro? Should we be worried about that? Can we find somewhere else to go? I wish we had some responses on our thread! Sandra

I read that they didn't have flouro and I am going to ask Dr Oritiz more information when I go for my band. I am also going to ask my local MD some questions.

It is confusing because I have read so many different opinions! I was told by the fill center to bring a copy of my post-operative report to the appointment. I thought that was great advice since you never know what will come up medically in your future.

Have you told many people what you are doing?

I had gastric band laparoscopic surgery Dec 13th 2008 in Puerto Vallarta Mexico and the doctor used the SAGB Quick close. I am now lookng for post surgery band fill. Did you find a doctor that would fill besides New Prague (which has since gone out of business)?
