Looking for Fills in Atlanta Georgia



Recommended Posts

I was banded in Mexico and would like to know if anyone knows any Doctors in the Atlanta area that will provide fills at a reasonable cost. I've found several Doctors that require upfront money in the range of $1500-$2000 which to me is excessive. Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, I think we got our band on the same day. October 21st?? Just thought I'd drop you a note. I don't know of any fill doctors in your area, but I did find one here in Texas that is about 1 hour from where I live for $200 with fluoro...I actually have an appointment set up for the end of this week. I hope everything is going well for you and good luck with finding a fill doctor

EDAZUL - Can you give me the Doctors name and number you found in Texas and do you know if they accept patients who were banded in Mexico?

Hi Dunatl - There are several doctors in Atlanta that work with the lapband. I'm just not sure if they'll give fills to patients banded elsewhere. I see Dr. Duncan at Peachtree Bariatrics. You could always call their office and ask. Good luck!

Hey Dunatl,

I've sent you a message via email, but I forgot to answer your question about whether they accept MEXICO banded patients and the answer is yes.

Hey Dunatl,

I'm sorry, I guess I did something wrong since you didn't get the email I sent you, but that information on the fill doctor is the following; Her name is Dr Stephanie Eijsink and she is in College Station . Her address is Scott and White Clinic ,1700 University , College Station, Tx 77840. Her phone number is 979-587-0000 and her email address is seijsink@swmail.sw.org, If you email her she will answer any questions and the great thing is that she has weekend appointments. Hope this helps and I will let you know how it goes this Sunday... Have a great Thanksgiving

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
