Cyndi,
I hope all went well and everything is how you hoped it would be. I was banded by Dr. Ortiz on Aug. 24, 2006, and I live in Gilbert, AZ. I have only lost 20 lbs but that is better then putting on 20. The nurse Wende comes down to an office in Mesa once a month and she charges $100 for a fill with out Fluro. A lot of people use her, but I feel safer going to TJ. Let us know how everything went.
