Can't say enough about Dr. Rumbaut.

Just do a search for "Rumbaut" here on this site and you'll read enough glowing testimony to make you jump on the next plane.

Hi - Dr. de la Garza did my lap band surgery on 9/1. I can say honestly that he was very good - reassuring, answered all my questions, and just had a great bedside manner...

The hospital and hotel suites, recovery suites, etc., were like being in a hotel - complete with concierge like services...I can say, though, that in the van going to the hospital that it looked like we drove through the poorer side of town...and I was seriously questioning what the he&* I was doing there...but once I arrived, everything went really well.

Email me if you like and I'll answer any questions specifically....:D

I was banded by Dr. De la Garza and I could not have had a better experience. I know that Monterrey is a beautiful city. If you have any questions, I will be happy to answer them and tell you about my experience as well. The doctor's team and staff were great. I would definitely have it done all over again if I had to.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
