I am having mine done by them on June 8th. So far I have been very pleased with them.

what Dr. will be preforming the surgery for you? What type of pre op diet do they have you following? Sorry for all the questions I'm just so excited about the possibilities this will lend me and the new leash on life i'll be gaining

Hi,

I went to Dr. Bhoyrul's seminar and met with him the end of April. Due to a job change I had to postpone anything further until now.

I really like him and his staff. Have you met with him yet? They have a very good reputation and program from what I can tell already. They provide all the information in your consultations.

I imagine I will get banded in the next month or two. I can't wait!

Well i hope it all works out for you soon. I have not met him yet or even been to the clinic. My phsyc eval is tomorrow my only thing that is stressing me is that I don't have 5 years medical history of weightloss here in the U.S.for my insurance but when I called the nurse that overlooks everything said they would take Dr. notes from Mexico so i hope they will be ok, i treated my self down there for many years befor going to a doc here. We'll see, glad to hear good news about the doc and his staff let me know how it goes for you:) best wishes

Hey Smitten,

I had my psych evaluation on June 1st too (by your post I assume yours was June 1). Did you see Dr. Steres? She seems nice.

Have you gone any further? I just received a call from my insurance so I assume Dr. Bhoyrul's office submitted paperwork.

I am thinking I will schedule the procedure the first couple weeks of August, we have an office move that I don't want to be weak for so I think it is best that I wait until that is complete.

Good luck to you!

Katie
