    Fills is China or Korea?

    I'm also living in China and need to find a Doctor for fills - Shanghai is also my nearest major city. I found a Doctor/Professor searching the net who does the surgery at the Shanghai Changhai Hospital so am hoping he will be able to do my fills. Obviously the language is my biggest barrier at the moment and just making an appointment is turning out to be harder than expected - Google translate can only get me so far! I'm thinking of just heading to the hospital on the days he's meant to be there and camping out until he sees me - I think he does have another doctor/protege who works with him who speaks a little English but after some correspondence with him - suddenly it's all gone a bit quiet! Bariatric Surgery is still quite new here (although this is changing at a rapid rate), throw in the lost in translation language and how things are just generally harder to organise here in China and this is why I'm choosing to have my surgery elsewhere. The fills are another matter of course and I'd prefer to have someone close by - but if I end up having to fly elsewhere for a fill - then so be it! Love to hear from anyone else in and around China who are experiencing the same problems....I mean experience / journey as I - and then we can share stories and information and help each other locate good fill Doctors nearer to us while still smiling and trying to remain sane. Have a Great Day!
