Where did you get your sleeve?

I am at the beginning of my journey, but I'm going through OSU Medical Center in Columbus.

I am at the start of my journey, and I plan on being sleeved by Dr. Curry at JourneyLite in Cinci!

I'm at the start of my journey, also. I'm attending an informational meeting this coming Monday 7/16 by the group from St. Vincent's Charity Hospital in Cleveland. Looking forward to receiving more info than I've already found just from the Internet and sites like this.

Went to the info meeting tonight. Was real impressed by Dr. Ben-Meir who did the whole presentation. He was very personable and answered everyone's questions. We turned in an info sheet along with our insurance info so his staff could start that process. Next comes talking with our advocate and setting up a consultation with one of the surgeons.

Since I've last posted, I've been on information overload. Since I figured I'd be self-pay (bariatric surgery excluded), I've looked at going to Mexico (lots of info and surgeons to sift through there) and trying to find surgeons here in the States who aren't as expensive, but still with a good reputation. I got the go-ahead from my PCP (I work in his office!) today and have decided to go with Dr. Mark Pleatman in Michigan. At this point, I just have to find the best time to be away from work, and get the paperwork started. I almost cried at work when I realized that this is really going to become a reality for me!!!

Hello

I'm researching as well, and am also self pay..as of right now, due to finances, I am considering surgery with Dr. Alvarez, in Mexico. There are cheaper surgeons in other areas of Mexico, but I feel comfortable in knowing that Dr. Alvarez's hospital is only 1 mile over the border from Eagle Pass, Texas in a small city away from the bulk of all the hooplah that's going on down there and the fact that he has done over 4000 sleeves with excellent reviews. Currently saving money and brainstorming for faster ways to finance my surgery

I am looking at Dr Curry I know of a couple of people who did Dr Northrup but by the time I foud out I was already starting with Dr Curry so I will stick it out and I hear Curry is great and from what others said they paid he's a lil higher but oh well. Good luck
