I'm narrowing my choice of surgeons in Mexico (I have a lower, right! BMI) so I know that I would never get my insurance to pay for it. I guess they would rather pay for weight related problems that will come along later - anyway that's another story - plus I'm sick, sick, sick, of the "loosing" battle that I've fought since I was a child - anyway I digress and I apologize for that - but
what I was asking about was advice on who to go to locally for fills.
Actually I live in River Falls, WI - but I suspect the nearest fill-facilities would be in MN. Can anyone help me with this?
THANKS!

I talked to Park Nicollett Bariatric Dept. (St. Louis Park, MN) today and Teri Barker, physicians manager - told me that she suspects that they will soon (sometime in 2006) be opening their facility to patients other than their own. This is because they have recently added staff and would be able to handle the extra patients. She said that they currently charge $114-$175. (The $175.having the fluro). And appointments need about 1-2 week notice. Maybe this would be different if it were an emergency, I don't know. Anyway their number is 952-993-3180.
