I booked my surgery with Dr Alberto Aceves for January 7, 2013. My best friend had him and loved him. I am so excited that Jan seems like an eternity away. Anybody else have dr Aceves? I would love to hear about your experiment. Thanks.

Well it's been a month since I was banded and everything went very well. Iam down 18 lbs. Dr Aceves was wonderful as was his staff. I was seen by my family dr 2 weeks post op and I have had no complications. Dr Thomas Lee of Mount Laurel NJ will be doing my fills, I live in PA and it takes about 2 hours to get there, so I am a happy camper and I can't wait to start shopping for new clothing!!

Had mine done in Mexico by Dr Alberto Aceives. Total cost was 6500.00 which incl 2 night stay in a hospital, not a clinic. Highly recommend him. Him and his assist and the staff were very caring. I was banded on the 7th of Jan.

Hi. You will have people who will not be supportive. I am 5'5'' and weighed 207 and I was banded Jan 7. down 18 lbs so far and I have no regrets about doing the band. My parents were not supportive at all cause I went to Mexico, which I would do all over again, but I had my husband's support and support of good friends so that was all I needed. Take it with a grain of salt and do it for you!!! -
