Houston Texas Doctor to do fills!



Recommended Posts

Anyone know one??? Most doctors will not do it unless they did your surgery. True results will not I already spoke with them. My surgery was done in Dallas. Dr. Garwood is retired and referred me to try lap band solutions ....will call tomorrow.

Sooooo no doctor to do fills in Houston made an appointment with another doctor Dr. Stephanie Eijsink she is in Tyler which is $200 on September 6th on a Saturday in Tyler which is only 2 1/2 hours versus a 4-5 hour drive to Dallas. Yay!!! I can't wait!!!!

This sounds insane to me. I will not return to my Dr. because his nurse is a twit and runs everyone off from his practice in Houston. I have been told that I would not have a problem transferring Dr's should a problem arise. I did go through TR and they do my fills, but should a problem come up I will never return to the Dr.'s office who performed the original surgery.

I used to live in Houston and come to Dallas for fills. Now I live in Dallas. Got a fill yesterday at Forest Park medical center and it was a great experience. They don't care who your original surgeon was. Even if was Mexico like mine. And it's only $75.

      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.
