Dr verbonnen?

[diddylou 6]

I am hearing good things about dr verbonnen ... Has anyone used him in Mexico for the sleeve?

I had surgery a year ago in Cancun with Dr verboonen. I'm down 81 lbs and feeling great! I highly recommend him.

Feel free to message me if you have any more questions.

Thank you so much or sharing.... Can I give you my email address or phone number and we stay in contact through our new life? Where are you from?

You're welcome my same friend introduced me to this forum and it really helps a lot! It would be nice to stay in touch, you are more then welcome to pass along your info if you like ....I'm from San Diego literally minutes from the border...what about you where u from and when is your surgery date??

I was sleeved by dr V on 3/1. I only talked to him for about two seconds before surgery and then never saw him again so I really can't give you an opinion of him much. However, I have a sleeve of steel and nothing has bothered me. I have neat, minimal scars so as far as his work he did a great job. Sheri Burke was my coordinator and although as pleasant as she was, don't expect answers to any questions after the money hits her hands. No returned calls, no returned emails. I will also tell you to expect to be flexible in your travel plans. They took us back to San Diego a day early and dropped us off at a hotel around 10? that morning. Having surgery less than 48 hours earlier, I wasn't happy about laying on a couch in a hotel lobby for 5 hrs till our room was ready when I was supposed to be in a 4 star resort in Mexico recovering.

Texasmiss - thanks for your reply. I am more concerned about his ability to perform surgery. I will be prepared to rent our ow hotel I we need to so thaks for that info. I must say suprises me about Sherri she seems so friendly

[diddylou 6]

Texasmiss -yep happened to us also poor communication however my scars are perfect I have been walking around San Diego before hotel is ready feeling fine. His nurse is awesome just wish she spoke English an his daughter was a life savor. I did have the opportunity speak with the doctor often though.

[TexasMiss 314]

did you have surgery in the clinic or hospital? I was at the clinic and Maria was my nurse. She didn't speak much English but she was great and we didn't have a problem communicating. Glad to hear you are doing well. Everything is a downhill road from here...each day gets easier and easier So I'm curious.. have you tried to contact Sherri again? Any response? I'm pretty sure if I picked up the phone and said I was ready for plastics she would call me back $$$ lol PM me sometime and let me know how you are doing

[diddylou 6]

Thanks for replying. I don't know how to pm my Facebook name is kristie Bentley from Louisiana. Maria was an angle. Nope you were right Sherri hasn't called me back. I had a very rough second day. Yesterday I walked around San Diego. Today flying back. I tried hot Soup today and am scared but so for everything is good. I am not taking in more than 300 calories and only about 20 ounces of Fluid ... Does this get better?

[TexasMiss 314]

I apologize I didn't see your first post until it notified me on the second one. It gets better, hang in there. Tomato based Soups didn't set well in the beginning, and I noticed temperature made a difference...too hot or really cold was uncomfortable. I could do about three or four apoonfulls at first. Don't forget to move since your home. I walked to the bathroom on the other end if the house...up and down the hallway... the more you move the better you feel so don't let yourself get stiff. I was probably drinking about 20 ounces then also so your ok. I had to keep a glass in my hand to remember to drink because I didn't get thirsty. Some days it was only an ounce, but I tried to drink more each day. After about two? months I was drinking normal again. Remember this isn't a race, so don't compare yourself to others...do the best YOU can do
