NFaith, I've read from another post that Dr Watkins at Synchrony Health in Oakbrook will fill patients that were banded elsewhere for $95.00 I dont know about the cost of the flouro. Dr. # is 630-990-2240.I thought of calling him myself. I'm also doing self-pay but I'm not getting banded until Feb. 09 'cause thats when Ill have the money. Im undecided if Im gonna get it done with Dr. Ortiz in Mexico or with Dr. K in Colorado either way I have to find a Dr. that will fill outside patients for a reasonable price and hopefully thats where Dr. Watkins comes in. Hope this Info helped,Good Luck! :thumbup:
