then click on surgeon locators on the top of the page, put in Seattle and start calling. I know there are a few who will take Mexico patients as one of my band sisters lives in Seattle and has had her fills in Seattle, I do not know his name though. Before you go to Mexico, get it all lined up first. I have seen many men & women not line up aftercare in their area and have had no chhoice but to go back to Mexico for fills & aftercare. Many US docs will not take patients banded in Mexico and the ones that do, charge a fortune! Good Luck

I totally agree with Michelle, and remember, fills is not always the only thing you may need with banding. Sometimes there are emergencies, such as overfills or slippage which you'd want to have seen about ASAP. If one can't afford to fly to MX on a moment's notice, a local follow up Dr is imperative. Also, some SAY they will see someone, but don't follow through afterwards, especially if there are any complications. You need to see this person and become established as a patient of theirs BEFORE you've been banded. Good luck!
