Fills in Houston after Surgery in MX



Recommended Posts

Does anyone know where I can get fills here in Houston after my surgery is completed (Sept 1st) in Mexico (Dr. De La Garza)? I am self pay and I have heard the fills are between $150 - $600. Of course $150 sounds so much better :huggie: Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!

I have a great fill doctor in Bryan Texas, she was banded around a year ago in Mexico, and is now at goal. She was trained to do fills the way Inamed requires. She is fantastic. She does the fills on Saturdays, uses fluoro, and charges $200. I don't think any of the doctors in Houston do it with fluoro routinely, so any price you get is going to be without fluoro. A good filll doctor is important. Some doctors will not give you enough fill at one time and it takes too many fills to get to where you need to be. You want an experienced fill doctor who will give you as much fill as you need so that it does not take too many fills to get to a perfect fill. Especially if you have to pay for each fill.

Her contact information is:

Dr. Stephanie Eijsink

3201 University Dr. East, Suite 405

Bryan TX 77802

(979) 774-1377

I am scheduled for surgery next week in Monterrey and am having trouble finding a Dr. in my area that will do fills. Does anyone know of a Dr. in the Bryan/College Station, Tx area? There are a dozen or so Dr.'s locally that will do the lapband but I have not found one that will touch me for the fill.

      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.
