The Molding Clinic and Dr. Huacuz have disolved that practice. He can is not authorized to put on the American Lap Band due to a problem with a patient. Andres Betancourt has opened Betancourt Medical who have a great surgeon and staff. Andres has 13 years of experience and is also banded. If you need any more information go to Betancourtmedical.comhttp://home.comcast.net/~terryrohr/Pics/beforeafterShirley.jpg

Here are my befor and during pictures

I dont know where you are getting your information but for what I know Dr. Huacuz is authorised to work with the INAMED company.

I call the Inamed and call them to get all copy of documents and make sure that he is a Inamed approve Surgeon, I did all this research before my surgery that has been 1 year ago by now.

all the patients that I had spoke from his Hospital, have Inamed brands o.k....

I don't know where they got their information either. I was banded in a hospital in Tijuana by Dr. Huacuz in November 2005 and have an IMAMED band. I also did my research ahead of time.

dr. huacuz put in my band and it is INAMED, i saw it before he did my surgery. they let you open the box and it comes with a card that has the id number and certification, so you know you are gettin the correct band. you carry the small card in your wallet in case you ever need to replace your band. it has the seriel number and all that stuff. good luck. i lost over 90 lbs and am doing great.

YOYO,

I'm with you. I'm not sure where that info is coming from.....

Dr Huacuz has his own clinic & he is indeed authorized to put in Inamed band. He did mine in March 12, 2007. I also checked with Inamed, & in fact have my band serial number.

I had follow up here in the U. S. & everything is exactly where it should be. In fact the Dr. that did my fill said the placement was perfect.:)

I´m really sorry about the bad experience that you and your wife had.

Dr. Huacuz and Betancourt are no longer together since 3 years by now, and he was his own clinic. I had the best of the experiences on his clinic he ask me two stay 2 day on his facility, and the nurses were so carrying all the time that I has there. if I had the chance to do this one more time, I´m positive that I will go to his surgical center again.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
