  1. hello all, sorry if this is in the wrong topic, but I finally found a doctor in NJ willing to take me since I moved from CA. I'm going for an unfill next week and am thinking about bringing a boiled egg with me!! I want to make sure I can eat that, since right now the only thing I can tolerate is yogurt.

    Fills by a different surgeon?

    I just moved back home after going to school in CA for four years and had the HARDEST time finding a fill doctor. A lot of places were so rude and just flat out said no!! Most places wanted to charge me up to $500 for a visit, so ridiculous. Perhaps it's because I live in NYC and every office is just too busy. I had to look out of state and found a doctor who was very understanding. Good luck!
  3. Hi everyone, I'm new here, Ive been reading these forums for years but never posted since you guys answered all my questions!!! Anyways, I moved from Southern California and due to the climate and altitude changes in NY, my band has been very tight. I basically cannot eat anything without sliming and eat a bite of food right before bed. I've been calling places all morning: Dr. Ren: needs my operative notes and will call me if they accept me Dr Shah: needs my operative notes and no appts until August Dr. Pomp/Dr. Jacob: needs operative notes and each fill is $250 Dr. Gorecki: has never had a self-pay patient and cannot give me a price, isnt available till August Montfiore: only one doctor (Dr. Camacho) accepts outside patients and fills cost $500 Dr. Garber: too far for me, but $350 for initial visit and $250 for fills Doctors who said NO: (you'd think I committed a crime by getting my band somewhere else!!) Dr. Jonathan Wong Dr. Charles Choy Dr. Ferzli Dr. Edward Chin North Shore Surgery Specialists Looks like my best bet is Dr. Shah, yet OBand wont release my notes without a signed release from the doctor! Well, I cant get an appt for the doctor without these notes so what am I supposed to do!! Does anyone have any other recommendations? Please help! Thanks-Nancy
