I have a name that my Dr. gave me for a dr that did fills in texas for Mexican patients, but was wondering if anyone else might have some suggestions and costs?

Texas is a big state - where are you coming from? How far are you willing to travel?

I'm in Georgetown, about 20 minutes north of Austin. I can get to Dallas, Houston, Austin, or San Antonio, within 3 hours. Thanks for your help!

there is a doctor in Grand Prairie who does fills for patients banded in Mexico, but I can not remember his name but if you went to dfw bandsters (yahoo search)look in their archives or e-mail Charlie from this site, he could give you the names of doctors who can help.

Hi all,

Its Dr. Garwood. I am working at the Urgent Doc in Nacogdoches Texas most days but I am also still doing fills. If you need to reach me call the clinic and ask for me 936-560-9898 or reach me on my cell at 979-575-7740. I just wanted to remind everyone that I do fills on foreign lapbands as well as local lapbands. I have reasonable prices and want to keep you from having to make a trip back to Mexico. I do most of my fills in Lufkin, Texas. Call if you have any questions or would like to make an appointment. I look forward to your calls.

Thanks

GGarwood, DO

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
