I can only tell you about my experience with Dr. Arturo Rodriguez in Monterrey Mexico. You may want to try the Mexican Bandster group in Yahoo. That were I did my research on my surgeon! Good luck in your research!

I had this surgeon do my Lap-band and he was great! The nurses were wonderful and I haven't had any probs. I experienced no bruising, nausea or discomfort. I felt totally comfortable with him and his assistant. I am a nursing student that is graduating in May so I was very critical on the whole procedure but couldn't find anything amiss! The care I got was above and beyond the type of care I have experienced in the states. Good Luck with your weight loss endeavors!

Dr. Rod in Acuna did my surgery on July 28, 2006. So far, so good!! My incisions are neat, small and only 4 of them. Of course, I asked him to make them nice for my future bikini days...lol!!! I had a great experience with Dr. Rod and the staff at the hospital. Barbara, the patient advocate gal who drove me from San Antonio gave me a bookload of information before and right after my surgery. I go for my first fill on Oct. 7 when my family and I will drive to Acuna/San Antonio for a long weekend. Would like to go on a fill trip with others in the future but this worked out for us for this first time.

There are many qualified docs in Mexico. I was happy with my experience there and if you have any other questions, pm me and I'll be happy to give you more details of my experience.

Staceylca,

I was banded by Dr. Jose Rodriguez on Oct 3rd, 2006 in Acuna, Mexico. Dr. Rodriguez put me totally at ease after talking with him prior to the surgery. He answered all questions that I had and took his time in explaining his answers. The facilities in Acuna may be small, but I was impressed at how clean they were. The hospital staff was caring and friendly and did everything in a most professional manner. I would recommend using Dr. Rodriguez to any potential Lap-Band patients. The day after my surgery, Dr. Rodriguez came by with all of the meds that I would need to take. He explained what they were and why I were to take them. Again, I had the opportunity to ask any questions about the surgery that I might have. He then released me and I was free to leave the hospital and travel back to San Antonio.
