Dr. Joya - All Inclusive Band Surgery



Recommended Posts

I used Dr. Joya for my surgery who offered an all inclusive package that I found to be very affordable. It included roundtrip air to Puerto Vallarta, one of Mexico's finest hospitals, the San Javier Marina Hospital, and even a stay in a 5 star Beach resort.

Dr. Joya has helped me lose a lot of weight. He is very professional and he basically was just plain awesome!

Check out his website or e-mail me if you have any questions about using him for your doctor.

My wife is looking at having lap band surgery. She will NOT meet any of the insurance requirements so it will be self pay. Are there any more people out there that are familiar with Dr. Joya.

Yes! Please read the archives on the Mexicanbandsters board regarding this surgeon. I'm sure you'll find the reading VERY interesting!

Thanks for the pointer. I use yahoo groups but didn't think to look in the mexican bandsters area since this post was the first one where I encountered the name Dr. Joya. I've spent the last 15 minutes reading posts over there. I've got quite a bit more reading to do, but thanks again for pointing me in the right direction

Dr. Joya did my surgery and now I am down 175 pounds and feeling great! Just a note, Mexican Bandsters and Bandsters are run by patient coordinators for Dr. Ortiz and Dr. Kuri and they scam a lot of people by not posting good comments about any other doctor, and post negative when a good doctor has a good reputation. They are run by saleswomen under the supposed free forum context, but it is not free and posts are not allowed all the time at mexicanbandsters and bandsters, so read what you like with a lot of caution.

      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.
