Fills in Toronto, Ontario



Recommended Posts

I heard of a Dr. Gutauskus in Ottawa fills any band for approx $75. He doesn't take a lot of patients, but you can try him. I was banded in Mx w/ Dr. Ortiz on Oct 30 and got my first fill there a month ago. I need another fill and can't afford too go back so am also exploring my options. Good luck!

Do you mean you have not seen Dr. Gutauskas? Do you know who in Detroit?

I am considering Mexico for the lapband but I cannot find a fill doctor in Toronto, Ontario that is not an outrageous price. Can anyone help? I dont have the money to get this done in Canada and I need to find a fill doctor before I go ahead and get it done in Mexico.

Please see my previous response.

Fill Centers US will see you.

I was banded in TJ with Dr. Ortiz. He was wonderful. I took a flight from Buffalo... From Detroit you would be able to get a direct flight to San Diego.< /p>

Best of luck.

I know that the CIBO clinic offers an unlimited fills and de fills post operative care package you can try them. Otherwise some family doctors do it but I am not sure if they are covered by OHIP. The Nurse option that someone mentions if they are not part of a clinic sounds like a great option. It is such a simple thing to do.

just wanted everyone to know that I called the SWLC and you need to have a consult $200,then you can only have an Inamed band and if he decides to take you as a patient the it will cost $5,000 for after care. As for fills, I'm leaning towards detroit, Montreal could be a possability as well.

Are you serious? At that rate, I'd rather have a Tummy Tuck. I just moved from NYC to Toronto and am looking to get a fill. It would still be cheaper for me to fly to NY everytime I need a fill. There has to be a place to get a fill. What about general doctors? Nurses? Lol, shoot at 5k we could fill each other. I've never heard of such a thing. These people are in the business of making money, they don't care about people's lives. I'm stillin shock.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
