Fill Doctors in OR or western WA



Recommended Posts

Does any one know of fill doctors in Oregon or Western Washington? I have been going to Richland WA but they are not going to take Fill Center patience after Sept 1 and it is an all day trip as it is.

Thanks, Ginny

I will soon need a Fill doc. I was planning on going to Richland, Wa but just read on here that Dr. Heap isn't doing it after Sept 1? Is that correct? I live in Eastern Oregon if anyone can help please do.

thank you........has any one else developed leaking from one of your incisions? They said it is just redirection of my fluids. Makes you sore like the horrible flu.

I've heard of an awesome one in Portland. Here name is Dr. Kelly and her web site is Home. I have an appt with her on Sept 29th for my first fill. There is also a couple in Arlington, Wa. as well and they only charge $150.00 for the first fill.

Dr. Tersigni will fill people even if he didn't do their surgery,

but he is kind of far for you. He is in Coos Bay Oregon

She is Kelly Fitzpatrick and she is AWESOME! She hit the port right on first time and she is very good at working with you to get proper restriction-you sip Water while she fills you. She charges $180 or 185 for the first and $160 thereafter. Her prices go up Jan 1 by $5 or $10.

      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.
