I am strongly considering Dr. Kuri for my Lapband surgery. I plan to have my surgery in 6-12 months, depending on finances (my insurance won't cover any WLS). I've been considering LBS for several years, tried traditional ways to loose the weight, and it just isn't happening for me. My sister was banded (in the US) a few years ago, and she is doing great. What I like so far about Dr. Kuri's team is that the patient coordinator (Joann Jackson) has either answered all of my phone calls, or gotten right back with me. And she has the answers to all of my questions, no matter how silly they may seem. I like that I'm getting the same person to talk to about this big decision, and she hasn't been the tad bit pushy about making a decision or booking, she is just there, answering my questions, sending me any information I request or info she thinks is helpful to me. I still feel I have a lot of research to do, but feeling very confident with Dr. Kuri.

I'm deciding between several surgeons in Mexico to be banded. I've read every forum topic regarding surgery in Mexico, and read all the posts on people experiences with the different doctors. What I'm wondering is if there is a place I can go to find hard, solid, medical FACTS on these doctors and the hospitals/clinics they practice in? Such as properly filed complaints, lawsuits, etc. etc. I want to find cold hard stats on the doctors, not opinions. It's nice to read different peoples experiences that they've had with these doctors, but that only tells me so much. Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction! Amber
