Dr. Rumbaut is great. Very experienced, is/was the president of the Mexican version of the American Bariatric society (forget the exact wording of that one), he's banded himself, and his patients seem to like him a great deal. He has the skill and experience necessary as well as training, etc.

I had my surgery done by Dr. G (Dr. Gonzales) in TJ and had a great experience. Everyone on the team are excellent in what they do and very friendly. I fly back there for my fills and they've become like family to me. If you'd like to know more about my experience just post me.....

I forgot to tell you that I think the prices in MX for the surgery are all around $7,000 to $8,000. That would include everything and lifetime free fills. 23_33_21.gif

I think one issue with Rumbaut is people like his experience and stats. Many like going to Monterrey because it is a bit safer town, more of a vacation spot, etc. Lots of tourists vacationing there, too.

Personally I wanted to be closer to the border when having surgery. I wanted to be able to walk back if need be. But I'm a weenie that way. :wink_smile:

I have not heard of anyone who wasn't very happy with Dr. Gonzales.

YES, being close to the border makes a big difference. Some one picks me up at airport in San Diego or at the border. I wouldn't want to walk around very much on my own. Dr. G's clinic is right close to the border. Another plus for me is that I can take a flight to San Diego for around $150 for my fills. I hear the cost of fill doctors can be very high....much more than that air-ticket.

Where is Monterrey, down by the Gulf?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
