Looking For A Fill Doctor-South Florida



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone. I am almost 4 week post-op & need a good fill doctor. I can travel from Miami to Plam Beach Or in Ocala if the doctor is real good. I would like to know names of doctors used & prices if known. Any advice may help.

Thanks,

Sally

Hi Sally, I'm in Miami, too. I was banded by Dr. Aceves from Mexicali on July 28, 2005 and due for a fill myself. If we find one far from Miami wanna split traveling costs? I'm overdue for a fill and I can't find a reasonable one in Miami. I'm hoping to have the first one done under flouro but at this point, I'm willing to do it without flouro if the doctor is good. Let me know.

Hey girls, where in South Florida are you? I am in LaBelle, I'm 35 miles east of Ft. Myers. I use Dr. Gomez in Miami. He is very experienced and reasonable as far as fill prices in the US are concerned. I tried very hard to find someone and he is the only one I found that would take Mx banded patients. He charges $300 w/ out flouru, and $600 with. I go w/out its all I can afford, but I tell you, the man is very experienced, my port was flipped and he still managed to get the port on the first shot and w/out any pain. He is also mighty fine looking. Tall, dark and very handsome. His assistant is Emilio, and he is also very nice. The good thing is that if for some reason you don't have enough or have too much fill, they will give you more or take out less for no extra charge. You do have to notify them after your fill if you fall into that situation. I am planning on getting a fill done in about two weeks, wanna meet out there??? Let me know, here is his info.

Eddie Gomez

305-285-5090

3661 S Miami Avenue

Suite 708

Mercy Professional Bldg.

Miami, FL 33133

There are several people on this board that use him. When I signed on w/ him there was no initial consultation fee so that is good, everyone else I called here in Fl would either have nothing to do w/ me or wanted $300 for a first consult and then the fills were something outrageous like $750. So I make a day of it, head out there and see my cutie pie, get my fill.

Hey Girls, Im thinking of using Dr.Gomez $300.00 is not to bad but I did want to use the Floro. for the 1st fill but your right prices on fills got to be a little to $$$$ for me & then to stay over night. Dr.Rumbaut said to use Dr.Marema or Dr. Jacobs in Coral Gables & Dr.Gomaz does the fills in Jacobs office because I understand that they work together now so I guess he will be ok. Im looking foward to my 1st .fill Im not eating to much but starting to feel hunger if you know what I mean. Im 4 weeks post-op today & the scale I'sent moving for me. I would also like to get a fill asap. 1st week of October. Keep in touch .Maybe we can meet up .E-mail about waht day your going & Ill try to get my appointment for around the same time. Oh as far as travel if I found someone better, Yes I would spilt costs for but right now I thinK Dr. Gomez is the best to get! the job done !!! Besides Ive heard only good things about his fills & experiance.

Hey everyone, Me and a friend of mine were both banded by Dr.Ortiz and I had my first fill with Dr. Martinez and it was excellent but I'm going to be due for my 2nd fill soon and really want to find someone in Florida. I'll drive 5 hrs or whatever to avoid flying to Mexico again. Please email with any information any of you may have it would really be appreciated. Robin2463@aol.com

Dr. Paul Wizman in Margate, FL - Coral Springs area - (954) 969-1355 2960 N St Rd 7 Suite 102, Margate, Fl across from Hospital Talk to Kim and she will give you the details..I really liked him my first fill was 5/28/08.

First consult $75, then if all is well he may fill in the office it would be $150 total..if the first one he feels he needs to do fluoro he will use the hospital and that total charge would be $230..

Then at the office each one there after is $150..

Forgot to mention I was banded in Mexico and he will do them..bring your Dr. Report and Xrays and most likely he will go it the first time in his office if he can see/feel the port. No pain...

Be careful if you pay for your fills out of pocket and then you are able to get insurance that covers the fills....there are certain physicians that will not take your insurance once you started as a self-pay patient even if they are a contracted provider for your insurance.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
