He is fabulous. I had my surgery by Dr. Sanchez and Dr. Zapata last year. They picked me up at the airport with a sign that said "Smith" on it so I felt like a celebrity, took me to his guesthouse which was awesome. You have your own suite there with a huge bathroom, fridge in the room, tv. (we took dvd's with us) food for after surgery, then he will take you where ever you want to go so we met Funny and Tracy and all went out to eat at a steak house the night before surgery then the next morning they take you to the hospital, you go to the surgery holding room then off to surgery (about 35 min.'s in surgery) then to recovery about an hour then to your room. You have a private suite there as well with french doors that go out on a balcony overlooking Monterrey and the hospital is fabulous. Then we left the hospital next morning about 12 hours after surgery and back to guesthouse and stayed one more night there and then flew home.

He is the sweetest, personable, professional, and most experienced surgeon doing the lapband. I had heard about others there and in TW and his numbers are more than Ortiz or anyone else. He's done over 7000. You will love him.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
