Fills for Mexican Patients in D/FW

[Carlene 12]

These doctors will band Mexican patients. Neither is a band surgeon. Dr. Maese is a cardiologist and Dr. Dobson is a cosmetic surgeon.

I have heard a rumor that Dr. Maese does not use Huber (non-coring) needles. I do not know if this is true or not, but I would ask before scheduling a fill with him.

Are you saying that these doctors will fill patients who had surgery in Mexico?

Yes...I apologize if I did not make that clear in my earlier post.

Will they only fill inamed lapbands? Many of us who chose Mexico also chose a different band.

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question. I have never used either of these doctors - just passing along information from my support group.

Previously, several years ago, they were filling patients from Mexico and I drove from Houston to Dallas for fills.

Then I didn't need one for a while and about 2 years ago, I think I called them and they wouldn't do it without a copy of the surgical report.

Now I just make a weekend of it and drive to Mexico!

That Dr. Maese is a cutie, though!!!

Is it your experience that Dr. Dobson will not do a fill without a surgical record?
