My Husband and I are planning to have surgery in Feb 2013. We wanted to go to Dr. Preze in Cancun but because of our BMI Dr. Lopez is the better surgeon. I have been very impressed so far with the communication with his office, but i was wondering if anyone else had surgery by him?

I had surgery with Dr Lopez on 9/27, in TJ. Great experience and would do it again! I haven't posted my 'story' yet, but I will in the next week or so. My sister went with me and she will be returning in November to get a sleeve with Dr. Lopez.

thanks for the reply! I am a ball of emotions! I am excited most of all but i am also scared. Scared of the pain after the surgery (after reading some peoples issues after the surgery) scared that I will morn the loss of eating. I live in New Orleans we have really good food! But I know I have have to do this I am ready to do it. I have to become healthly! I am only 33 years old and my 65 year old assistant has more energy than me and less pains! I am ready to make the change because I know I HAVE to change I just dont LIKE change!

I'm booked with Dr. Lopez on Jan. 91/ 13. I've heard very good things about him, and if I didn't have work obligations, I'd be on my way now. A 6 year wait list in BC Canada
