#6 | | Guest |  Fill Doctor
Hi, I am in Boise and am looking for a fill doctor. I had my surgery in Mexico because I didn't have insurance. Does your doctor do fills if he did not do the surgery?

#8 | | Guest | fill doctor
No, no answers....but I think I will just go with going back to Mexico. My neice had surgey with me and we go get fills together. We really have a wonderful time and everyone there is so friendly.
I did call a local doctor and the woman who answered the phone was very curt and said no the doctor doesn't do fills for anyone he has not done the surgery on. Just was not a nice person. So that is a lot of the reason I decided to go back to Mexico.
Thank you so much for inquiring!

I get my fill in Seattle, since while I live in Pocatello 9 months out of the year, I consider Seattle my home. (that's where my heart is, after all. :D) I know that Rae goes out to the Seattle area, and she is in Burley.
I know that my band surgeon proctored someone if UT, but that is probably farther than you want to go.
Finding a fill doctor if I have to move worries me because it looks like so many docs don't want to touch anyone they didn't "do."
good luck and keep us posted.

HI...I just got back from Tacoma last night. I had my first fill on Monday. My doctor will do after care on anybody but it might be a long way for you to go. Sorry, don't know anybody closer. Good Luck

Hi, I live in Pocatello and was banded in Blackfoot on August 17th! Dr. Avila did my surgery. I will get my first fill on this Tuesday, Sept. 26th. He is really a nice Dr. and conservative and careful about everything. I really like Bingham Memorial Hospital, being a smaller hospital you were treated like you were the only one there! They also do the surgery in Idaho Falls. I was self pay as our insurance wanted me to go on another 6 month diet and at 51 years of age I had been there and done most diets losing a little and gaining it back plus more. It was time to really do something different.
Looks like you were banded a year ago. How are things going for you now?
Paige
