I plan to. Which doctor are you using? I am using Dr.Altamarino.

@@belindadcns Hi☺ I am planning on going with Dr Fernando Garcia Govea in Tijuana Mexico. How much is Dr , Altamarino charging for the surgery and how many days would I be in the hospital and the hotel? When do you plan on going? I want to try and have it done before the year ends. I want to go into 2016 feeling good and looking better then I do now.

[belindadcns 55]

$4199 is the price.Includes 2 nights in hospital and 2 night at recovery house.

[belindadcns 55]

I am planning to go towards the end of year because of kids school schedule.

[Patricia A Garrick 12]

Yeah me too. Sounds great! Where are you from?

[belindadcns 55]

Georgia

[Patricia A Garrick 12]

Ok☺ I'm from Louisiana. I just checked out the deals here on Bariatrics pal website. If they find a hernia they'll repair it for free! That's a plus! I wonder how much they would charge to remove the gallbladder @@belindadcns?

[belindadcns 55]

Each doc has a different package. I will look to see if Dr.Altamirano does repair free. I will look for your friend request on FB.

I'm also considering Dr. Altamirano in Dec 2015. I'll be going alone...scary!!

I went to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico alone this summer to get my surgery. I am from canada so it was a longer trip. My bf and sister both offered to come with me but I figured I'd rather go to mexico with them on holiday rather than for surgery. That way we can enjoy it together. I am hoping to return there after Christmas.

When my bf left me at airport security, I was scared. I almost turned back. It seemed like a crazy idea to be flying to mexico to get my stomach cut out. But that was literally the only time I was scared. After that, it was all excitement!! I couldn't believe I was so lucky as to have this new gift and was hopeful and excited for the future. So happy!

If you can't find a travel buddy, please try not to worry. You can do this!!
