Anyone know a $200 or less fill doctor in DFW area



Recommended Posts

Anyone have a fill doctor they would recommend that takes cash and will fill a patient banded in Mexico? No problems, smooth surgery, just need a fill doctor. Willing to travel to surrounding area.

Its more than a little out of your way but there is a great doc in Kansas City who is a proctor for Allergan and has done over 1000 bands. He only charges $100/fill, takes patients banded in Mexico and uses the Floro at no extra charge. If you don't find anyone in the DFW area it might be worth the travel.

Have you tried the Surgery Center of Richardson? Have no idea their policy on non - patients, though.

I think his fills are $300, not the $200 you wanted, but I saw in an advertisement that Dr. Carter will fill patients that had the band in Mexico. He's in Arlington.

I can go back to my surgeon, just would have to fly to El Paso, but the price of the flight negates the free fills. Free fills except for $100 for fluro.

Thats why Im hoping to find a doctor here in the DFW area.

No, I havent tried the Richardson Center, I might try and find their phone number and call them. A doc at Presberterian said no, one at Medical City will do it, but charges an extra $100, so instead of $150 he charges $250, another after initial visit charges $200, but wouldnt see me for 3 months.

So if anyone has phone number/contact info, Ill be glad to keep calling around. So far nothing $200 or less.

Thanks for the info folks.

I called them and they will only take me if I am seeing a doctor that practices in that hospital who will refer me, so Id have to pay to see that doctor plus the fills.

Tried calling Carter in Arlington, and got his answering service, they are already closed for the weekend, at 4 pm??!! lol

Yep, but he is the one who now makes you wait 3 months before he will fill you after the date of your surgery. lol.

I feel like a leper.

I did get a office # for True Results and the name of the office manager to talk to directly.

He doesn't make you wait 3 months, only 6-8 weeks. Any credible doctor wants the stomach to heal before restricting it. I use Maese all the time and I also had surgery in Mexico. His office is very quick and efficient and it doesn't hurt that he is really HOT!

Im thinking he doesnt want new patients because he is telling not only me but others he wouldnt take us if we were banded in Mexico for 3 months.

Looks like he told Camel Cracker the same thing he told me, 3 months!!!

Wow... I called Dr. Maese and was told that because I had my band done in Mexico that I would have to wait 3 months to visit him, then my first appointment would be 375, 200 for subsequent fills.... grrrrr!!!!

I have never heard of such a thing. Fine then, just fib your date 6 weeks. He won't know the difference. I will see him next week and ask him about this. He does us Mexico patients every day. I was told 6 weeks after surgery you can get a small first fill. don't see why he would have changed it. His uncle, Dr. Sanchez in Monterrey (Murdered 2 years ago) was the one who brought the band to North America in the 1990's. Maese knows more about fills and does more of them than anyone.

Well, to update you'all, you can cross True Results/Richardson Surgery Center from the list of possible fill doctors. They insist you pay for seeing one of the doctors listed on their list on their website and being referred. I wasnt sure they were the same place, True Results and Richardson Surgery, but they both gave me the same answer. NO.

Its no wonder that Dr. Maese is so overwhelmed with new fill patients he had to start making them wait to see him.

Im still hoping for another fill doctor to show up to get a fill before I cruise, but oh well. At least I got my band, lot of good its doing me.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
