Lap band folks!!!

Hey all I am 4 yrs post VBG but run a support group of bariatric pt's. We have lots of lap band pt's that due to the lack of surgeons in the stamford ct area have a very limited choice in doctor. (of course not ALL are unhappy) our biggest issue is about the actual charging for fills of the lap band port. Is this what everyone is experiencing and par for the course?? Just wondering......
