If you do a "search" on LBT for Dr. Rumbaut you will find that not one person has anything negative to say about him. He's an amazing surgeon, a wonderful man, and I would recommend him to anyone.

As far as complications go, the average rate of complications with lap band surgery is 1 - 3%. Dr. Rumbaut has a fewer than 1% rate of complication.

I have had some problem with reflux - not actual acid backing up but pressure/pain at my sternum. I am taking Nexium now and the problem is completely resolved. If that's the worst of it, I can handle it.

Best wishes for your surgery and your weight loss journey.

I had surgery last thursday with Dr. Rumbaut and there were 6 other women there doing the same. I am very very pleased with him and his staff they are wonderful. Some language issues with the nurses but other than that everything went extremely well. As far as I could tell with everyone else including myself, we were all very very pleased.

He is an amazing surgeon and cares for his patients a great deal.

I was up and around the same day as surgery and was sleeping on my side the 2 days out. A bit sore still on port side but no major concerns. (knock on wood)

I do beleive you have made a wonderful choice with him and if you have any questions please let me know I'll do my best to help.

Ditto for what these ladies have said. I was banded on 8-17 and have only wonderful things to say about him and his staff. Best of luck to you and I'm sure you will not regret your selection!

I was banded by him on August 8th and just had my first fill in NY on Monday. The doctor I saw spoke very highly of Dr. Rumbaut and based on the xrays & flouro said the band was perfectly placed.

You made the right choice!

Jackye,

Dr. Rumbault and his staff are great... I think I have to pay a little more for my fills here in Central Florida because of being banded in Mexico but I feel it was worth it to be banded by one of the best there is.

I love Dr. Rumbaut, and his staff is great. I have had several questions since returning to the states and they are always glad to help. I had the best care by the nurses at the hospital. I have never seen such a clean hospital before. I would do it again.

I'm confused...how far of a drive is it across the border to this hospital?

I had surgery in 2001, I flew from Costa Rica. Had no complications at all.

I recommend him 100%
