Need fill doctor in Oklahoma



Recommended Posts

I am trying to find a fill doctor in Oklahoma. I spoke to an office in Little Rock and they said I would need to come up with a $700 consultation fee. Any ideas would be appreciated. :(

I'm also looking, if I find one, I"ll let you know. I was banded in Mexicali Mexico by Dr. Aceves on May 27. I'm doing well & may go back for the first fill in July. After that, I'd like to find one near.

Thats my doc. Actually he is the assistant surgeon. Fills are 400 dollars if you are self pay. Nice to know there are bandsters so close. Good Luck!

That is alot of money for 2 to 4 cc's. LOL My band was installed in Detroit and until the last month or so flying there for the day was not out of reach fincially. My doctor was $150 per fill. I am a self pay which is why I am interested in how much they charge. I need at least 2 more cc's. I have not lost any weight and I am even heavier than when I had my surgery in Nov. 07 I can eat anything and do not get filled up quickly. I appreciate your reply and I will call this week.

Thanks

I called the doctor in Owasso and they may be able to get me in sometime in August. Better than nothing I guess. I am just glad to find a local. The doctor is $200 and the hospital also charges. I didn't have time to make that call from work. I figured a total of about $400.

Hi Ladies:

I had my first fill with Dr. Kirk yesterday in Owasso. He was wonderful and very good at what he does. He explained everything he was going to do. He charges $200.00 and the hospital charges another $200.00. He informed me that he does lots of Mexico patients. He is the only Dr. I found in Oklahoma that takes Mexico patients that didn't cost a fortune. He also has a great bed side manners and loves to joke.

Hope this helps.

      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.
