I have made arrangements with a Dr. in Vancouver that works out of St. Paul's Hospital. What province do you live in?

I am surprised your surgeon in Mexico didn't offer possible fill doctors. My surgeon requires a post-op Dr. prior to surgery.

Best of luck to you!

To all of you considering the lap band in Mexico, be sure to find a doctor near you that is willing to do your fills and take care of you before surgery. Very often surgeons won't touch a patient who's been banded in Mexico and they return home with no one to do their fills.

Not always true Ms73, I was banded in Mexico in March and have found three in AB, I use the one in Calgary..I would not have changed a thing!

Lannae, I'm from alberta. What are the names of the 3 dr.'s in the province. I called two in Calgary, that online said they do Mexico fills, and both of their offices said they won't do fills for surgeries done there. I'm planning on having mine done in February and would like to have a fill dr. lined up first.
