Pre-op tests that I am having anyway
vivitampa replied to Travelmego's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Oh yes I most certainly do have the date set. I set it for Aug 5 nearly 3 months ago when I sent in my deposit. I wanted to set my date so I could buy my airline ticket and arrange my days off at work Most people don't plan so far ahead but my situation to was that I don't have the $4500 cash for the surgery yet. I am still saving up. I've researched my doctor a lot and continue to after sending in my deposit learning more about him with all the stories I find out about his current patients. I especially have learned SO much on facebook on the Sleeve Gastrectomy and Weight Loss Surgery groups. -

That is great! I plan on doing the same tests as well before heading to Tijuana. I am getting my surgery for the Sleeve in November. -

I am going through Specialized Bariatrics for my sleeve in November. Here is their website. Cathy is the contact person and she is great. It's costing $4500. http://specializedbariatrics.com/ -

I've done tons and tons of research in the past several months and found in my opinion for Pompa to be the top surgeon and facility but also the priciest one too. If not for her price I would be going to her. You have have made a great decision. Please keep us posted!
