Fill Doctors In Western South Dakota, MT, WY

aladdinwy3 · March 16, 2008

Good morning! I am new to the site but have found all of your threads to be extremelly helpful and encouraging. I have also gotten many ideas from your journeys. I am to be banded by Dr.Kuri on 3/29/08 and am ready as ever. The question I have is related to fills. I live in a small town in Wyoming (on the border of South Dakota and Montana) and the closest cities are Spearfish, SD, Rapid City, SD, Gillette, WY, Sheridan, WY or Billings, MT. I am wondering if anyone knows of physicians in any of those cities a or local areas that offer fills? Any help is appreciated.

I don't know who Dr. Kuri is...is he local to you? I live in Buffalo, WY, and I was banded in Greeley,Colorado by Dr. Johnell. I drive down there for my fills and check ups; it's about 4.5 hours from Buffalo. There is no one in Sheridan, Gillette, or Billings, as far as I know. There are some bariatric surgeons in Billings, but I think they are just doing bypasses. I even have a home in Bozeman, and there is no one there, Missoula, or Great Falls, that I can find. SO, it's to Greeley for me!! I am pretty sure there is a lapband doc in Scottsbluff, NE. Maybe you could go there. I'd also keep checking Rapid City; I would think there should be someone there. By the way, my parents live in Aladdin, too!!! HAHAHA. My sis lives in Spearfish.

Thank you so much for your reply, that will help and I have family that lives in Castle Rock so I could make the trip to denver without any problems. Dr. Kuri is in Mexico, I am going there for the surgery due to cost and insurance not covering any of it but would like to get fills locally. Your weight loss is amazing and I would love to keep in touch with someone close. Such a small world once you start to get out there!!

I could be off in a couple of those letters but keep trying. good luck, having a band is great!!
