Dr. Brad Watkins and Synchrony Health

Dolittle · June 16, 2009

Being a moderator at another lap band forum, It's not often I can praise a doctor and his office staff. I just can't say enough about Dr. Watkins, Melody and the rest of the staff at Synchrony Health in Oakbrook IL. Being a Mexican lap banded patient myself, their willingness to accept Mexican patients for their aftercare is a big plus. Every time I go to Synchrony Health for follow ups, fills, support groups or whatever, Dr. Watkins and his staff go that extra mile. If your looking to be banded or need follow up care, check these guys out. So far I've never been disappointed.

According to PMs I have from Dr. Watkins he does indeed say that he will do fills on Mexican banded patients. He *then* went on to explain that he charges $1,000.00 for a fill on a Mexican banded patient because someone needs to punish them for going to MX.

Not much of a plus in my mind. More of a putz.
