pretty-pink 43 Posted July 2, 2012 I am wondering if anybody that went to Mexico for their VSG has had any problems with infection? If so, what kind and where? Is this even tracked by the surgeon since so many people come from the US/Canada? I am still trying to determine my surgeon and this is probably the biggest factor in my decision. Thanks in advance for any input! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SusanR 9 Posted September 2, 2012 I'm scheduled to be sleeved Sept.8 with Dr. Rodriquez who has great reviews, but I'm really nervous about post-op follow-up. I live in Ohio. How do others handle this? Just go to your usual MD for labs; not neessary? Will they talk to me about this when I have my surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
damanda 41 Posted September 5, 2012 Zero infection for me and my wounds are pretty much 100% healed) the biggest still has a scab). I was sleeved 08/18/12 by Dr Kelly in Mexico. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AStephenson 159 Posted September 18, 2012 Hi Susan..I live in Ohio too! I have asked my PCP if he will do my follow up after surgery, and he agreed. He seemed to already know what bloodwork I would need and such.... How did your surgery go??? Hope you are doing well! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
