Hi I'm going to Dr Osuna on May 30th!!! I had planned on another dr before dr osuna but the dr I was going to have it done by was never heard of no reviews!! I told that drs coordinator that she says that I should look him up the next day! Out of curiosity I did and the coordinator just posted some pics of this dr and a video ! That day! I'm like anybody can do that! Either way i originally wanted to go thru dr osuna ! But in the beginning of this journey I couldn't due to I had a request they couldn't grant! So the other dr with no reviews was going to allow me my request !!! So here it was two weeks before I go and Got a email from dr osunas coordinator !!! Saying they will grant my request and I'm in good hands! I didn't see a lot of reviews on her either but I seen some!!! So I am going to her May 30th!! My family and friends have not been supportive at along me doing this surgery !! I wish I wouldn't have told them ughhh but dr osunas coordinator Cathy has been super helpful with support!

Hi. I am looking in to GS. I am 5'8 1/2 . 35 years old and last I weighed myself I was 210 pounds... more probably by now.haha! Anyways I'm not able to get GS here in the states. So Mexico it is. However I've been researching RR alejandro lopez and his wife. I seem to warm up to them more then any other surgeon down there. Also to see that Dr Lopez is on the American bariatic board of surgeons and has worked in cook county Illinois . I am wondering if anyone had this procedure done by this Dr? Exp please??? Also I would follow diet to a t and am so freaked about leaks... and the fact I have to fly from Milw WI to Mexico to do this. I hate planes too. Haha. Well if any one out there can give me some insight I'd be so greatful... lots of details please!!! Thanks in advance!!!

Hi Trixie .. I am looking in to gastric sleeve with Dr Ariel Ortiz. Your exp sounds awesome. Can u email me with all the info as to pre op and post op. Price? Anything else? I know u were very detailed in this post I just still have so much more I wanna know thanks uuuu soooo much!

Trixie can u please email me at lisamelody01@yahoo.com. I need so much info. Lol I am looking into the sleeve with Dr Ariel Ortiz. Price? Thanks

OK thank u American girl. I will do that!

Thank you 920 Amy I appreciate the info. Yes I am still researching my best options. I do have a coordinater she's been pretty good so far!

American girl... let me know how yourms gos. I have to decide on a Dr in a week. I had my heart set on Lopez but all yours sound excellent as well I'm confused lol

O wow this is so awesome to read thanks to all of u for the wonderful feed back . I feel my research is allowing me to feel more confident and secure in knowing this has to be done. I am so very thankful for the info and love the details! Thank you all so very much! Chunky dunk. Tyyy..!!! Can u tell me the cost for the surgeon u had? Dr Lopez is doing mine for 4200.00 its in hospital as well. But I didn't confirm just yet so if your drs cost is around 4200.00 I could probably go to him.!!! I am looking at March! I am worried because I do smoke and hope I can stop the two weeks before. Ivan aware its got a lot to do with healing. Tyy again this is fascinating !!! My bf thinks this could b a scam too any thoughts on that? Tyyyy ladies!
