  1. After my 2nd fill i was kinda howTina said, i couldnt eat NOTHING!! Im like 10 weeks out now from the 2nd fill and i still have a hard time eating, i lost like 30 pnds since the 2nd fill. What did they say about you getting upset about the OV fee?? I wrote her a letter and told her how upset i was. I also kinda did what u did... i refused to make another visit cuz i told them i would have to wait til i could afford to, you cant just suprise people with $110, when they expected the fills to be covered like you were told!!!!!!!! How much weight have you lost? Once you are tight... and your lose weight... you lose weight around your stomach so the band will get loose... but it sucks that they make you wait 6 weeks for another fill... and in our case that we have to pay when we were told its free... when i make my next appt i plan on saying something to him.... he needs to know that his patients arent happy and feel like they are being lied to!!

  7. Ya i got the same bill!! I paid it but complained to the person i paid... it was a bill to read the upper GI.... I dont have ins... so after 3 months you owe an Office Visit... its $110... so the fills arent "FREE" I had ALOT of hidden fee's..... i have to say i like Dr Teng but i wanna kick his staff in the face... they are all rude... and i always leave there wanting to cry...
