Hi Marivi,

Hi Skinny Jill,

Thanks for your information. I do not know if Dr. Spivak will take my case since my surgery was done in South America. Most of the doctors do not take out of the country patiens. Do you know of any case like mine in his office?

Smile Dr Garwood does foreign fills...

Hi Marivi, Dr Gerry Garwood in College Station does fills on Mexico and Foreign country fills.

He is very good you will love him. He is the creator of Myocel which is used by many prominent Lap Band pioneers to defat the liver in preparation for surgery.

He does fills on Saturdays as well.

He can do them with or without Flouro.

He charges $200 for the initial consult and $100 for a fill with Floura it is $155.

7day adjustment policy.

You can contact Janice at : 979-661-1160

Hi Marivi,
Dr. Guillermo Ponce De Leon is in Sugar Land at the new Memorial Hospital on West Grand Parkway (near Hwy 99 & Hwy 59). He and his group are in the professional building next to the hospital. I don't know if he will do your fill, but you could call his office at 281 342 8932. His web site is Southwest Surgical Associates - Trust. Hope this helps!

Hi all,

Yesterday I got my fill. Dr. Alanis here in Houston, near the Medical center did it for me. Very nice Doctor and great staff. He took time and effort to understand my situation and in a moment my fill was done (without flouro). The price was great too, the same as the other doctors ($200). If someone want to check on him go to Audencio Alanis M.D. - Bariatric Surgeon, Weight Loss Surgery, LapBand Surgery, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio. Unfortunately, the other doctors were more expensive or far away and they may be great, but this one was near and not so expensive.
I'm happy now!
Talk to you soon........
