♥Amy♥ 5 Posted June 7, 2010 my sister and I have the same surgeon and it is also where we get our fills.. but every time we go there we get reemed out by the PA and she is very hesitant on giving fills... it's VERY frustrating. I would like to look into changing fill Dr's.. anyone I got to Dr. Mehta in Patchogue. She did my surgery but I don't know if she does fills for people who's surgery she didn't perform. I LOVE her and she is very patient, understanding and most of all her staff is very nice, also. If I remember correctly, you told me you're in Suffolk County, in Holbrook? So she should be perfect, if she's willing to do your fills. I don't see why she wouldn't be. And boy am I glad I decided not to have Dr. Holover do my surgery. I wasn't happy with his staff at all. Dr. Mehta's # is 631-475-1013. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XxMariposaxX 1 Posted August 11, 2010 I was seeing Dory Ferraro at LIBC in Levittown but she has changed her hours and isn't as available as she used to be. I love her and her staff and hate to change doctors but don't know what to do. I'd like to see someone at least once a month and go to support group meetings. Does anyone know of a good surgeon/doctor in Nassau County or Queens that is accepting new patients? LIBC-Band Adjustments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shamrocklady 0 Posted August 1, 2011 Definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND them at all. More interested in money than patient care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fran1221 0 Posted August 28, 2011 I am also looking for a good place to go for fills. I had my surgery done in Mexico and was wondering if anyone can recomend a good place to go for a fill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TracieR 88 Posted August 31, 2011 I had surgery with Dr. Garber and see his PA Donna monthly. I am very happy. They are very nice to me and pretty aggresive with fills. Never had an issue with money or anything like that. I guess it all depends on our personal preferences and experience. Good Luck finding a new fill doctor!
