Hi there.

I am being 'banded' in Spain. Just waiting for the date. I will be in Miami for about 4 months from September. Has anyone found a Fill Dr near Miami? St Petes and Tampa are too far away.. There must be Bariatric Dr's in such a big city.

thank you

Kizzie

Kizzie try contacting some of these on the list
Bariatric Surgeons in Florida performing any Bariatric Surgery Type
A lot of doctors do not want to do fills on anyone who was not their surgery patient. That is why Fill Centers USA started.

I am sure you can probably find someone from Fill centers... plus I imagine since you're seeking medical care and your regular doctor is in another country you should be able to get some assistance.

There is no Fill Center in South Florida,now if you want to travel to Tampa that would be closes that is why I had to find a Doctor to take me
and I found a couple Wizeman being the cheapest.
