You can try Alberto Aceves, Ponce de leon, Dr. Joya and Liza Maria Pompa.

I am sure Almanza probably does also.

I have BMI of 30. I'm going to Dr. Aceves in Mexicali. A friend of mine with a BMI of 28 went to Dr. Almanza-Reyes in TJ.

Anyone know a doctor that will do the gastric sleeve on someone with a bmi of 30 ?

Hi Susan

I don't think that any Dr in US will do that surgery with BMI less than 40 except those Patient with BMI 35-39 with majors health problem, I'm in that case my BMI is 34.5 and I looking the posibility to do it in other place with that BMI and some health problems like Hypertension, gastric acid reflux, arthritis, and high risk of diabetes I'm in the need of a final result to my weight, as all of us I has been dieting all my life with the result of gaining back and more the weight lossed in the diet, do more research and ask don't stop and continue looking for your goal.

Good luck

I have a "low" BMI as well. I will be operated in Arhens in 9 days.

My surgeon told me, that

http://www.ifso.com/

does not have the same retrictions on a VSG as a bypass operation.

There fore many surgeons outside USA will operate at a BMI of 30 - Sweden and Greece in Europe, and a lot of other places.

Cross m fingers for you.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
