Looking For Lap Band Fill Doctor In Los Angeles Area



Recommended Posts

Just finished the procedure by Dr. Kuri in Mexico. Can easily make it across the border, but when the year gets more hectic, I'll want a fill doctor in Southern California (near Los Angeles). Any advice?

Dr. Helmuth Billy in Ventura, CA is a GReat band friendly surgeon. They are wonderful and very supportive. I can give you his info if interested. They are only 45 min from me in Van Nuys.

There's a Dr. Owens in San Pedro that I know will take Mexico Patients. I haven't seen him yet, but talked to his staff, because like you, I can go across the border, but might not want to later. Let me know if you are interested and I'll get you his info.

As for Fill Centers... I've been told by them for the last year an a half that a place was opening in Torrance "soon", so I really have a bad taste in my mouth about them. Just commentary.

sarah,

thanks for the reply. San Pedro is the closest address I've yet received so I would like the information. Do you have any idea how much it will cost for a fill? Dr. Billy in Ventura is thus far the most reasonable, but convenience DOES matter!

Ok so I am posting to a post a year ago but hoping someone see's this who knows about Dr. Owens. I was looking to his office to do the surgery, but at $17,000 vs $8500 I would rather see Dr. Ortiz (plus he's done so much more). But since he is 10 minutes from me (Dr Owens that is) I would love to see him for fills (after my first one by Dr. Ortiz.) Someone posted that he charges $250 a fill, is that still true and is that under fluro?

Has anyone see Dr. Owens? How do you like him?

Thanks!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
