Hi, I don't have good insurance, so I'm having my lap-band surgery done in Mexico in early August. I'm really worried about finding a doctor who can do follow-up procedures. I live in Boynton Beach (1/2 hour south of West Palm Beach). Can anyone give me some advice? I'm REALLY worried about this... Thanks, Kim

There is a message board on here for Mexico WLS.

Kim, Try Dr. Liem in West Palm Beach. I don't know if he takes patients who have had the surgery elsewhere, but it's worth a phone call. Lots of luck in Mexico! Elizabeth

U.S. Bariatrics will follow you, but it may cost a program fee. Drs. Marema and Perez are the two I am familiar with there.
