The only surgeon I've heard of who takes patients that are not his own is Dr. Malley -- I think he does, anyway. I have no idea what he charges. He advertises on TV all the time, so I'm sure his number is out there somewhere.

Oops, jsut googled "dr malley kansas city" and go this website, ph # included: http://www.malleysurgical.com/

My friend and band sister Kay goes to Dr. Malley and she loves him and his staff - not sure of the price but it seems reasonable - also don't think he uses flouro but she is happy with him. I also think he has a support group that she goes to occassionally. I think you could pm here thru this site - kayford

I don't know if it is to late but Dr. Lopez will do fills. He does not charge the $250.00 new patient charge Malley does. Just the fill. hey said he is only with blue cross. I am pay ing $75,00 to $150. He is sometimes concerned where you were originally.

Yhanks. I called Dr. Malley's office and was told it is $250 for 1st visit even with band already done. Fill extra after that. I had my band done here in the city.

Yes, I would call Dr. Hoehn. He is really nice. I am sure Dr. Malley is a fine doc, but there is a lot of controversy surrounding him. Every bariatric doctor in this area finds his practices to be questionable. With all the controversy, and not knowing what was true and what was not, I decided to steer clear of Dr. Malley.

Who was your doc?

What have you heard about Dr Mallery? I have a appointment in April. Who is the other dr with?

He used to be a part of a bigger group, but he left because the other docs in his group didn't agree with his practices. I went to two other seminars for docs that were not affiliated with Dr. Malley in any way, and they said the same thing about him. I am not sure what his practices are that has the bariatric community so upset with him. But, like I said, I decided to stay away from it.

The only thing I have heard is that he doesn't teach his patients a healthy lifestyle after surgery. He basically tells them they can eat whatever they want and lose weight. I don't know if this is true or if it has anything to do with the "questionable practices" that the other docs are talking about, but I had initially looked into Dr. Malley and changed my mind.

I am not sure where you are getting you information but you have been "misinformed" about Dr. Malley. He will even ask you how you are doing with NOT DRINKING with a meal? If you stop losing he will try to figure out what is up. I have the senario of really tight and can't eat Breakfast and then loser in the p.m. He even tries to work with me on what will work best. Right now we are creeping up on the perfect fill.

I do know he left a prior practice as he did not go along with some things they wanted to do.....................like charge us more for "fills". He even has patients that drive up from Dallas since he does not overcharge.

He uses fluoro on me each time and does not charge me extra.

I think he is a wonderful bariatric doc!!!

I think if you do some checking on the prior practice,,,,,their office management changed. I think there were some politics with staff and not really with the Physicians.

Dr. Malley rocks.
