Fill Doctors in Omaha, NE



Recommended Posts

Hello to everyone in Omaha, I was born and raised just across the river in Council Bluffs and I will be having plastic surgery in Omaha in June. I was banded in September 06 and I am down 85 lbs. I am trying to get everything lined up and I am needing to find a fill doctor in Omaha that could give me an unfill should it become necessary after my surgery. I was banded in Mexico and know that a lot of doctors won't touch Mexican patients, and my fill doctor where I am living now (Louisiana) doesn't think I will need an unfill but I need have a doctor's name just in case. Any names or numbers would be greatly appreciated.

This was also posted in the General Lapband Surgery site but it has some how disappeared and is also posted in Lapband Fills site because I know from my own experience that not everyone goes into all the different sites on Lab-Band Talk.

Hi there, I am looking for a fill doc/rn in KC, but could drive 3 hours to get it done. Found anyone? I hope your plastic surgery went well. Cheryl

Cheryl,

Have not had the surgery yet (June 3, 2008) but I did look on a website for patients banded in Mexico. (I was banded in Monterrey, Mexico) I did find one doctor on their site, Dr. Stephen Malley,5820 Lamar Suite 200, Mission, KS 66204 (913)492-2530 $250/initial consultation $100/fills thereafter. I don't know how current this information is but you should give him a call. There were also 2 doctors listed in Topeka, KS. Not sure how closer/further this is than Omaha. I only had one reply from anyone in Omaha. I still need to call the number I was given to see if they would consider doing an unfill if necessary. If you want the names of the doctors in Topeak let me know and I will forward on the names and numbers.

      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.
