Newbie First Fill With Dr Fox in Auburn, WA



Recommended Posts

Hello to all, I am a newbie to this site. I was banded August 12th with Dr Kuri in Mexico, I am going in for my first fill with Dr Fox on Thursday of this week. I have heard mixed reviews, I would love to hear anyone's experiences with him. My biggest concern is getting a 1st fill without a floroscopy. :biggrin:

Congrats on getting your band in Mexico, so did I. My Dr. in Michigan has never used floro and I have not had any problems with my fills (three of them) It should not be a problem but I'm sure there are others here that can say more about Dr. Fox. Good wishes for your journey to health and vitality.

Hi,

I have not heard of him. There is a doctor in Olympia that only does fills under fluroscopy. His name is Dr. Neal at pacsurgical.com. I am having surgery on the 31st. He seems very nice and so is his staff. You could always give him a try.

Good Luck!

Hi! I am Nicole and I was banded by Dr Joya in Mexico on Aug 12 of this year too! I just found out that Dr Fox is doing fills in Auburn which is where I live. Currently I use Fills Management NW in Marysville. I have had 2 fills without fluoro and had no problems. They now have fluoro which I am going to try in Jan. Just curious if you had your fill with Dr Fox? I also just got the registraion info with Dr Neal's clinic in Olympia...

      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.
