Fill Doctors in Houston Area



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery done in Monterrey, Mexico and it was wonderful. I was going to go back to get fills but if there is someone near Houston that can do it I would also love the number.

I also had surgery done in Mexico. After interviewing quite a few doctors I just had a fill with Dr. Stephanie Eijsink at Scott & White in College Station. She's great, has a band herself so knows what we're experiencing, charges only $200 with no special counseling or tests necessary ahead of time (not for me anyway), and she's not judgemental about those of us who - out of necessity - had to have our surgery done in Mexico. I highly recommend her.

You can contact Dr. Stephanie at seijsink@swmail.sw.org. I also have her address & phone #, but not handy.

Dr. Marvin in Houston does fills. I called his office to verify this......his office staff said yes. I haven't had any yet......my surgery is this Thursday 12/15 with Dr. Rumbaut in Mexico. But......like I said..I did call to verify.

My doc is Dr. Jose Rodriguez too. And I live in Houston. I do go back and forth. We make a weekend out of it. It still costs me less than a fill in Texas.

I have a friend who is the nurse, of well know Gastric Doctor in Houston that does private fills. She does all the fills for the in office BAND fills, for a flat rate of $85.00. Needless to say she's GREAT.

Would very much appreciate any contact information you have for your friends doctors office. Many thanks.

      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.
