Hi,

If anyone knows of any drs. in the Jersey shore area (NJ) pls let me know. I have been travelling 2hrs to get my fill from the dr. who did the surgery and he is quite expensive when it comes to the fills. His charge is $900 and my insurance won't cover that much. I am in need of a fill but can't afford his fee. HELP!!!!!

Try Dr. Meace in Preston. He is a cardiologist. He is fantastic.

Hello,

I , too need a Dr in Dallas/Fort Worth area that will take over my aftercare. I am disappointed with my Dr and staff. He is out of network for me as well. My insurance is Aetna PPO. I am having to pay a $50.00 co-pay for my fills because he is out of network.

I use Dr Richard Carter in Arlington...and I have Atena my first three fills were not covered I had to pay 200.00 bucks out of pocket. Atena now covers my fills my co-pay is 48 bucks I am very happy so call Atena and check to see what they cover. The change took affect in May....

GOOD LUCK

I am due for a Dr visit June 25th but I think I am going to cancel it for another month. My last fill was March 12th and I had a hard time eating for months. Also my ins changed and my surgeon doesn't take my new ins. So he charges 375.00 for the office visit and 250 for the fill! I am not going to pay 375.00 just to get weighed! I have tried switching doctors but no one wants to take on someone else's patient! UUUGGGGG

Im in Richardson, TX. Is $200 the price per fill from that doctor total? I dont have insurance so Im looking for the cheapest fill price I can find in the DFW area. I dont mind driving.

Wow... I called Dr. Maese and was told that because I had my band done in Mexico that I would have to wait 3 months to visit him, then my first appointment would be 375, 200 for subsequent fills.... grrrrr!!!!

Yikes, I thought I posted this message.... hahahahhaha. Yes, I ran into this same issue, and even though this fill doctor wasnt my first choice, I had checked into this.

Iv got some more good news for you, Dr. Jayaseelan charges lap banders $150 cash price if you got your band in the U.S. but he charges $250 if you have the band put in by a Mexican doctor .... and they told me I was lucky at that. That many other doctors wouldnt see you at all if you have the band put in in Mexico. He is in Medical City, and I believe would be a better choice for me than Dr. Maese, just irratated about the difference in price. I may call Davidson?? at Presbertarian Hospital and see if he also charges extra if you were banded in Mexico.

Let me know if you find anyone good to do your fills at $200 per fill in our area.

Wow, thank you so much! Do you know if the first visit costs more than subsequent visits? I may just drive back to Mexico because I dont want to wait 3 months for my first fill. I have felt healed since the day of surgery.

It would cost you the $250 Dr. Jay charges to drive to Mexico wouldnt it? I can get "free" fills for a year or something with my doctor in Mexico, but turns out I have to pay $100 for the fluor to measure the fill. It didnt mention the extra $100 charge to go back to Mexico in the original quote. lol. As I said to me the costs keep going up up up.

I figure the gas would cost me close to $200 both ways to drive to Mexico, plus you would need a hotel for the night.
