Guest Kerrie97 Posted August 5, 2004 Hello bandsters! I was close to getting RNY but have now changed my mind to getting banded. My ins doesn't cover the surgery so I'm paying cash. I am seriously considering Mexico but my biggest concern is getting fills here in the US. Flying back and forth to Mexico is not a reasonable possiblity. Do you know of any docs in the PA/NJ area that do fills? I am also willing to have the surgery done here in the US if I can find a doc that charges $15K or less if he/she is in my area. Most of the docs I've talked to charge around $20K which is about twice as much as in Mexico. Thanks in advance for your input! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
