Looking To Get Fills In Sf Bay Area



Recommended Posts

I was banded out of country .. and I want to get fills in SF Bay area where I actually live.

I am willing to travel up to North bay or San Jose area, but would prefer either East Bay or SF

I was banded in December 2011, and since then, I've lost some weight but lately (for past 1.5 months), I've been eating almost like a normal person.

I've contacted one office and they gave me a quote for a year of unlimited fills, but there is a slight chance that I might be moving out of state in the summer, and did not want to stick to such long term commitment.

Are there any good doctors for getting just fills? Any price quotes ?

I would really appreciate any feedback/help I could get on this !

(I've browsed the fills forums and there were very few options available, from what I found ... and that's my reason for posting here)

Hi. If you're still looking, try calling the Ciro Center in San Jose @ 408-271-3000 & ask to see Dr. Johnson. The receptionist/assistant there is named Melissa & she's VERY [/font]knowledgeable about this procedure. She'll help you where she can or have you talk w/Sherri who is the patient coordinator. Dr. Johnson is the Regional Director for N. California and in my opinion, is the very best!! :-)[/size]

Several others, who see him, & I are putting together a very loose support group and if you're interested, we hope you'll share in this with us. If not, no problem & I wish the very best for you.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
