I am going with Dr. Zavalza in June. I am not finding a lot on Go Light Bariatrics. How was your experience with them ? Did they arrange transportation smoothly, etc. ? I feel really good about going to Dr. Zavalza. I read nothing but positive feedback so far. Also, did you stay in the accommodations at the hospital or at the Marriott ?
I appreciate any feedback you can give me :)
HI Angie,
I have been looking for information on the accommodations at Florence Hospital. I am having my gastric sleeve done in June with Dr. Zalvaza and I have the option of staying in a Marriott or in the accommodations at the hospital but wanted to get some feedback first. If it was just me, I would just stay there, but my husband is coming with me and I want him to be comfortable too.
I would appreciate your feedback :)
I didn't use him, but I also did my research on him, actually met him, has all his credentials, very well experienced, he's a young and very nice folk, I visited Dr. j. Lopez before Zavalza, and I also loved him... and I scheduled my surgery with him after my consultation, I felt very comfortable, but if it wasn't for that... he would have been my doctor.... go to Bariatric Pal. Com, they have great deals and include you everything, they don't perform like thousands of surgeries per day, and they are really nice.
Hello! I am currently researching getting plastics done in Mexico!
I would love to hear about the Doctors anyone has used, what procedures you had done and approx. how much you paid.
I appreciate it!

Hello! I just read your comment and realized you went through something I am currently going through. I have had my band for 5 years and my insurance company also has an exclusion clause on bariatric surgery. What has been the outcome for you this far? I am starting to look into possibly going to mexico for a revision and am nervous too. I don't even know where to begin. How are things going with you now?

I used Dr. Sauceda in Monterrey. He has a group here under groups.
My dad just had surgery with Maytorena. My father is himself a physician... so we recommend him completely. Besides he is in charge of the most affordable REAL bariatric program we've ever heard about. It is their share what they cut, not quality care. So you need not to worry about that. ;)
My surgeon worked along with my primary doctor here in the states, I didn't fight much with reflux, but I did have it, so they gave me medication, and had to fix my diet a little...besides I don't eat after 7pm..that also helps.
I had the lap band in Tijuana 8 years ago unfortunately bandied didn't work for me and I had to have another surgery to remove it. I can't tell you if it happened because the doctor or me, but the lap band didn't stop me to eat, and now I am going to have a gastric bypass in Monterrey Mexico with dr Roberto Rumbaurt, highly recommended for one of my best friends who lives there.
I used bariatricpal.com, I know he has some sort of advertising on this page, but they don't really promote him as their team, they use, Dr. zavalza, Ponce de Leon, Dr. j. Lopez, I met them all, they are great doctors, but felt more comfortable with LOPEZ, he's a great person, and did a great job, didn't have any complications, and I'm already 55 pounds off.. you can do your research on them, and they even Skype with you before and after surgery, they have great follow up after surgery... give it a chance.
