			<title>Lap Band Mexico and finding a doctor at home to handle follow up fills</title>
			<link>http://www.surgicalservicesinternational.com/jnew/lap-band-mexico.htm#comment-5</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Tonya, This is a great and really important question. My advise is simple find a doctor first before you leave for your surgery who will handle the fills. It is totally unprofessional for a doctor to reject you because you chose to get a surgery abroad, yet they do it everyday. The fact is that with a little looking you will find an intellegent doctor who will handle the restriction fluids for your lap band .]]></description>

			<title>lap band New York</title>

			<description><![CDATA[I am thinking about getting my lop band done in Mexico. I have a concern about getting my fills done. Will U.S. doctors give me grief about having my lap band done there? I have heard that by getting plastic surgery for example in Mexico it can be difficult to get a doctor to do your follow up visits etc.]]></description>
