Avg. cost of fills?

Hi there, I got my band placed in Mexico. I could go down there to get my fills for free, but I was wondering how much it would be to get a fill done by an American doctor. Do they do them?

You need to check inamed's website for a list of their American drs. Then call the drs. direct and see if they accept Mexican banded patients. Each dr. has their own rates for fill charges. Some use fluro., others do not. They can tell you their method.

Do a search for a thread called "Fill Prices." I started the thread this week to get a general idea of what everyone pays, so there's already a list started here.

In Oregon it ranges from $150 w/out flouro at the docs I use. Flouro is an extra $100. That is about the cheapest in the state though. When I checked prices went as high as $500-600 elsewhere in Oregon. Teresa

Hey Mom is smaller,

Did u get ur fill yet or did u go back to monterrey. Im in the same situation. I was also banded by Dr. Javier but its not very practical for me to travel to Mexico. Did u have trouble finding a doctor to do the fill?
