:) Hi My name is Kim and I am new here I had my band placed 2 months ago in Mexico. I am in need of an adjustment. I have lost 30 pounds in the first month and am having a hard time maintaining. I am looking for a fill Dr in the area.(Olympia, Tacoma) I have checked with Dr Neal and am wondering if anyone can tell me about him?


Thanks for reading and I hope to hear from you soon

Kim

I went to my orientation with Dr Neal and have my consult with him this month. I was very impressed with him and his staff.
How are you doing since your surgery? I am trying to get as much information as possible.
Thank You

My doc is in Tacoma. As far as I know he works with Dr. Raumbauts (Dr. in Mexico) patients for fills. His name is Dr. Earl Fox.

How is your progess so far?

I have my consult on December 20th so I am just starting. I have found out that my insurance will pay 80% if they find that the surgery is medically necessary.
How are you doing? Any advice you can give me? How much have you lost? What have been your struggles? What kind of exercising have you been doing?
Thank you.

I also was banded in Mexico. I get my fills with Dr. Neal's staff. I can tell you that it is the only place in the area where your fills are done with fluoroscopy. They charge $350 for us foreigners, but $150 for Neal's patients.

I have never met with the doctor, but love his staff. I only wish I could afford to maintain restriction. Luckily, I will be getting an adjustment for Christmas. Woo Hoo.

meet you there?
