sunnybitrider 0 Posted June 19, 2006 Howdy, fellow Hoosiers. I'm just getting started. I have my first consultation 3:30pm on Monday, 6/19. I'm from central Indiana (south of Indy). Good luck to you all. Trish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tribon 0 Posted June 20, 2006 Sunnybitrider: How was your appt with the doctor? Who did you see? I'm still looking for a closer fill doctor. I'm in Brown County often (my parents live there) and your area would be better than downtown Chicago! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunnybitrider 0 Posted June 26, 2006 There is a doc in Bloomington, but I don't know how good he is with fills. He has a great bedside manner, though. I was only able to go to the first half of my appointment. The doc was stuck in surgery and I had to be somewhere, then a close friend died, so another wait. I have the rest of my initial appointment today (monday) at 12noon. I'll let you know how it goes. p.s. hope everything goes well for you today!! Happy B-day!!

eddiefreddie 0 Posted September 9, 2006 Dr Mcwen in Noblesville did mine. I have lost 25 lbs. in 30 days. he has a great staff, did it outpatient, and I would highly recommend him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
