Wanting Surgery

[Jean 0]

Hi Everyone,

I am thinking about having Gastric Plication (Supper Sleeve) with Dr.Jose Rodiriguez in Mexico. I am a little scard because I really don't know much about the Dr other then what is on his webpage and about going out of the U.S. Has anyone had this done with Dr Rodiriguez In Mexico?

I had my surgery with Dr. Corvala in TJ. Check him out. Great Doc and hospital. He's done the most plications. I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have. I had my plication on July 16th.

I will be going to Dr. Pompa as well!!... How long did it take you to get your date? I am in the beginning stages and I am so anxious to get it done!!!

Oh hey Sleeve or bust, you are going through DrPompa... I went through weight loss forever in saskatchewan, I think you can go whereever you want to book it (unfortunately no support groups yet in Calgary, but hopefully soon!!)... I had to book 2 months in advance as I have to give work one months notice, and with summer being here the other month was taken up, way too much to do lol 25 days now though!! Definitly looking forward to getting it done, lets stay in touch, any tentative dates?? Mine is Sept 17th :svengo:

I have a friend of my family's who used weight loss forever and went to Dr Pompa and that is how I found out about her and all of this.. such an enlightening experience thus far!!... If you dont mind me comparing.... her price was 9000$ incl flights and the whole package.. is that what you are also paying? this was the price given to her from the centre.

So her experience I take it with Dr.Pompa was wonderful!!!

How long ago was the surgery? How much is she down so far?? Im always excited to hear the results!!

As for payment ...it is 8900$USD for the basic package and Im paying $10900 for someone from WLF to go with me as a companion. My boyfriend isnt too impressed hes not going, lol but I need someone whos been there done that and can help support me through all of it. I just feel better that way, even though I love him dearly. :svengo:

Those are the same prices that I got too... I am thinking that I will go at the end of Sept.. to beginning of OCt.!! .... I will probably go for the 10900 package because i just want to go there and not have to think about anything but getting the surgery done lol!!!

I had the "regular" sleeve, 7/1/10, by Dr. Rodriguez. The surgery, his staff, the hospital, etc. exceeded my expectations. I went by myself and didn't have any problems.
