    Hi - Yes, I am also interested in Dr. Sanchez in Monterrey. This is all so scary but I'm tired of having lived 1/2 of my life being obese and the horrible feelings and societal discrimination that goes along with it. Unfortunately, I have read postings from people who have done Mexico bandings and they come home and their aftercare doc decided they weren't going to be dealing with foreign banded patients anymore or raising their prices constantly. Oh well. The prices locally are outlandish and there is no excuse, considering its an hour. I had lipo and a breast lift done before, and for both it was only $6500. Thanks for the info and good luck in your upcoming banding. Leslie

    Hi - Yes, I was also thinking of Dr. Sanchez, in Monterrey. It seems so scary to me. I especially don't like hearing about the patients who seem able to eat the same as before in just such a short period of time. How is that possible when they have banded up 95% of your stomach. But at 44 I feel like so much of my life has been wasted feeling like crap about myself, and now my kids are getting obese too. I have read complaints about Mexico patients coming home and the local Docs have changed their minds and didn't want to deal with Mexico patients anymore. Thanks for the info. Leslie

    Fill Docs in Montana/Canada/ID/WA??

    Can you relay the Doc's name in Olympia for the fills and aftercare? I too am considering a Mexico surgery but am concerned about getting the help I need back home. Thanks

    Hi all - I'm considering the lap band down in Mexico, self pay, as I can't afford the prices here. Can you suggest any places or dr. for after care and fills. Thank you.
