Considering Mexico, who's the best or worst?



Recommended Posts

hello all,

I've been reading these posts for over a year as I have been researching the best weight loss approach for me.

I'm considering going to mexico for the lap-band procedure, and would love some opinions or does and don'ts. Who do you all recommend? I'd like to stay in a hotel, not someone's private home.

Please research some old posts. Patients have their experiences, various drs. websites (w/lodging info., costs, etc.) posted. Just be sure that you have a U.S. based after care dr. lined up before your surgery. Best of luck to you!

Hi Pam..

There are many of us who went to Mexico and I'm sure we would all tell you that "our surgoen" is the best.

I can give you the names of the ones I know of in TJ Mexico who have experience that I know of

Lopez

Kuri

Ortiz

All are experienced in the Inamed Lap band

As far as Monterey Mexico there is a couple of them also but I'm not sure of their names exactly. I'm sure you will get many replys to this post with them.

Good Luck to you

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
